Lost in Time

Past. Present. Future. These three words are always associated with time. Associated with **us**. Present became past. Future became present. Those history and memories we shared. These things we value and continue making fun with. And those dreams we wish to come true. We were happy.

Looking back, I remembered how things are simply easy. We play and fight and laugh. That's it. No dramas and bitternes running through us. I remember how we laughed our lungs out. Laughed and laughed to the point we couldn't even properly breath. We used to make fun of ourselves, enjoy never ending roadtrips, spit out cheesy-cringey jokes, try unfamiliar foods, and do wrestling battles. I miss it. I miss how we used to be. **I didn't realize what was passing by until I slowed down a little bit to get a better look.** I'm all alone right now. In a dark empty room. Outside, the ocean was crashing, waves hitting sand, then pulling it back to sea. I thought of everything being washed away, again and again. We make such messes in this life, both accidentally and on purpose. But wiping the surface clean doesn't really make anything neater. It just masks what is below. It's only when we really dig down deep, go underground, that we can see what and who really we've become.

I am watching those happy teenagers out my window. I'm happy, at least I could watch them. I'm still a teenager but I guess my childhood has ended. I've enjoyed myself and I guess it's time to face the reality of life. I just hope, I hope things will get back to how it used to be. Wherever you are, I hope you're having fun. I hope you'll remember me. I hope we'd be the ones who we used to dream of. I hope we'll make things work. I hope we'll be with each other at last. I hope and wish. And continue doing it until it's that day. I'll make sure that I'll always ***bring the time*** with me. So when that day comes, I'll be ready. Thank you very much for reading this article!
