I hope the sun shines there//a closure//

You were so eager to leave the hometown, weren't you?
Oh God, you are even so eager to leave this country.
Living and working outside this country.
You and your wild dreams.

Now that you left,
How do you feel?
How's the town? How's the people in there?
Is it everything you ever wished for?

I hope you're doing good.
I hope it's all everything you wanted to see.
I hope you're happy,
And that you'll find someone whom you can love so dearly.

Wherever you are right now,
I hope you'll always come back to our hometown.
Take a look around.
Can you count how many things have changed since you left?

Pass our school building,
What do you remember?
Skipping math and history class?
Getting caught talking too loud during the flag ceremony?

What do you remember?
Talking bad things about unfair teachers?
Complaining about hard exams?
Playing cards and got caught?

Take a look at your yearbook,
What do you see?
A bunch of happy faces, a lot of goodbye quotes.
Does something enter your mind?

The graduations party,
The farewell party,
The tears of joy,
The "I'll see you soon".

And 7 years from now,
I hope you are right where you want to be.
I hope you get everything you want in life.
I hope you are surrounded by amazing people.

But most of all,
7 years from now,
I hope you're still coming back to where you first started,
I hope you won't forget your mom's smile when she saw you succeeded,
I hope you won't forget all the people who were there throughout your journey in life,
I hope you will never forget where you came from and what you were before what you are now.


And as for me,
I still don't know where I'm heading,
What I want in life,
Or what I want to be.

And if you ever wonder,
I am perfectly content with my life here.
And if you ever wonder,
I no longer wonder about you anymore.

But just so you know,
I never regret knowing you or spending my time with you,
And in fact, you're one of so many people that I do not want to lose contact with.
One of so many people that I still want to see when I am 40.

And lastly, thank you.
For everything.
I really wish you the best in life and see ya.
