“Elusive is something or someone that is difficult
to find, describe, remember or achieve.”
First love is something everyone has.
The first love left a deep feeling on them.
Some might have flowers bloom until the end.
Some might have the flowers wilt and died.
I remember my first love.
I called it “The Rain”.
Rain could come pouring without notice.
It may be a heavy rain or just a drizzle.
People with weak antibodies might get sick by this rain.
Love is just like this rain.
Could come from anywhere and everyway.
And I fear this rain.
I’m afraid of this “rain”.
Once you get it, it’s really hard to get better.
Especially if a great pain comes with it.
However, when you get better, you felt so good.
`Cause you knew how it feels when you get hit by this
“rain”.
The “rain” sometimes brings just a temporary pain.
But sometimes it might last forever.
I once suffered this “rain”.
I really hoped that I’ll never get hit by this “rain”.
But I can’t help it.
This “rain” let the flowers bloom.
Then the flowers dropped its petals, wilted and died.
On the half way it gave me pains.
“During
that time, I sleep with tears, I smile with lies,
I
suffered something called pain,
Somehow,
I lost the love, to love and to fate.
However,
I gained,
The
memories,
The feelings
of losing someone I loved,
Another
chance to love and to be loved by someone else,
And
experienced love once in my life”.
I took a long time to recover from this “rain”.
However, I’m glad I fall sick and learnt how to overwhelm
it.
This “rain” taught me a good lesson.
But I keep wishing that one day I’ll get hit by the right
“rain”.
`Cause God will give the “rain” to the one who’s really
searching for it.

I lost it.
I can’t find it anywhere.
I keep on searching but I still couldn’t find it.
I lost you.
I can’t find you anywhere.
I keep on searching but I still couldn’t find you.
Where are my mistakes?
Where are you?
Luckily, I found my mistakes.
There are lying beneath the heart.
I saw my mistakes.
I look deep into them and I realized.
I left you when you need me.
I forget how you love me.
I never know your heart.
I walk away without turning back to you.
I pretend that I’m not the reasons why those tears are
flowing down your face.
That’s my mistakes.
I found it.
But I couldn’t find you anymore.
You’re going far away from me.
I wish that I’m always by your side.
I wish I remember how you loved me.
I wish I knew your heart.
I hope that I turned back when I’m about to leave you.
I hope that I’m not the reasons for those tears.
That’s what I wish to be.

I remember it.
The face I saw just now.
The face that I had forgot.
The face that had gave me those scars.
As I see it, the scars start bleeding again.
It bleeds and it really hurts.
The person with that face is someone that I used to love.
I used to say how grateful I am to have you.
How happy I am when I see you smile.
And now I’m glad that you left me.
You left me without telling me why.
You walk away without thinking twice.
You keep on going even though I yelled and cried.
How many times I need to lose to make you satisfied?
How many times I waited but you never come?
How many times you lied and faking those smiles?
I remember how you used to be.
But I forgot why I fall for you in the first place.

How can I describe you?
From which part should I describe about you?
Let me begin with your brain.
You got quite an IQ.
You passed everything and made it look so easy.
But when it comes to love, you got zero.
`Cause you used your brain more than you used your heart.
In everything logic comes first to you.
“Why did you like me?”
“It’s impossible! It doesn’t make sense!”
“I got nothing compared to the one who had everything.”
These questions came to you.
Logics beat the heart.
“Why
can’t you accept the fact that I love you with the brain you got there?”
About your face,
Since beauty is subjective,
I guess you’re not bad.
I can’t say more since I like you not because of your
look.
“I
love you no matter how you look.”
The attitude you got there,
You got some manners and sometimes you act emotionally.
You show what you felt.
You keep on trying without giving up.
You work hard to achieve what you want.
“That’s
why I love you.”

(walking
down the beach) Do you remember how we used to play here? We would run from
here to there and everywhere. (smiled)
(staring at the girl)
Why?
Why did you come back?
These
shells keep on staying here don’t you think?
Things change. It doesn’t last forever.
Yeah.
You’re right. But this breeze is just like before. I really like it. (taking
off her shoes) Let’s
play! (running along the beach)
(walking towards the girl)
I
just got back and you treat me like this? So unfair . . . (smiled)
You left and I sent you off . . . and now you came back. What are you looking
for?
I’m
looking for you! (giggles) Do you know . . . Ouch!
(getting the girl) Are you okay?
Seems
these shells had become so harsh to me . . .
You’re bleeding! (grabbing her foot)
I’m
okay.
Let me take you home. We need . . .
It’s
okay. It doesn’t hurt at all.
Stay still!
I
want you back.
(checking her foot) Let me see if. . .
Return
to me. I want you back.
You were hurt! Stay still!
This
cut doesn’t hurt me at all!!! You’re the one that’s hurting me. Why don’t you answer me?
(speechless)
We never had officially break right?
(leaving the girl)
This
time I’ll never leave! It’s not even my faults that we broke up! You’re the one
who’s leaving me! And
now you’re leaving me too!

Please look back at me,
I’m next to you,
Turn your head and look at me.
You only look somewhere else,
As you always have,
You only look far away.
Watching you loving him and living that way,
Do you know that’s my way of loving you?
My heart is aching,
Just watching you,
Not having you,
It’s like a part of me,
I’m so used to it,
That I don’t even know it hurts.
Even though I’m tearing,
Even though I can’t even speak,
I need to smile.
It’s like a part of me,
In front of you I love you like a fool.
Pretending I don’t know,
Pretending it’s not true,
Pretending I didn’t see,
Everyday I met you and secretly learnt to love you.
I’m longing for you,
I want only to reach out to you,
I want only to embrace you,
After being unable to even say the words “I love you”.

If I approach she turns and runs,
If I look at her she just looks at the sky,
Does she not know how I feel or is she doing this on
purpose?
Only time keeps on going by.
Even if she just passes me by,
Even if I try to act like I didn’t notice,
Like a river in my heart, is she a rainbow?
I would run to her,
I would fly to her,
If she came into my heart,
Even if she doesn’t run like a child,
Even if she didn’t leave like a butterfly,
If she only stayed like that for a long time,
Like the rivers’ water going along.
I would run to her,
I would fly to her,
If only she would come into my heart.
