Growing Up

I got to meet some of my friends the other day
I couldn't believe some of my friends from high school and college are already married and have their own kids!
It seems like it's just yesterday where we were all chatting inside the classroom or playing games while waiting for our professor.
It seems like it's just yesterday when we were all wide awake at night...supposed to be doing a project but could not stop from giggling and talking about our crushes
and it seems it's just yesterday when we were talking about what would become of us 5 or 10 years after...now that time has come
It's like magic seeing my friends having babies...a new generation...
When I'm looking at my mom...and remember how she raised me...it's like seeing my future.
I just wish i will be a good mom too just like her...and i wish my daughter will be a good daughter too like me (i am! ^^)

I have one fear though...it seems that the world is getting worse...i am scared for my future kids...i know I'm not supposed to feel this way because there are still a lot of good people here...still, i wish my kids will be able to overcome the challenges, temptations and trials that I've passed through and will still be passing through...


Anyway, i am happy for my friends. Seeing them again made me realized that we are all grown ups now....

I pray for my dream

Lord,
You have always been good to me
You made all my dreams come true
You gave me what is best for me
You know the desires of my heart
I cannot hide anything from you
You have been my bestfriend, my closest friend
Now i have another dream...a wish
I know you know what is it
I pray you will make it come true
I am asking you according to your will
For i trust you...i entrusted you my whole life
My dream will happen only if you allowed it
Hold my hand...for i am afraid
Let me sleep peacefully beside you tonight...

HIGHWAY

On this night, On this highway
With the moon above and with nothing to say
I feel calm, I feel ease, I feel free
In my car and with my keys
I can go anywhere i want to be

Few cars on the road and nobody is rushing
Hands and eyes are busy but the mind is wishing
So this is how it feels to be empty
Free, calm but lonely

On this highway, i began to think of you
As i go faster, i feel i am drawing near to you
Night deepens, and the street lights shine
When the wind touches my face, i remember your smile

I look behind and i saw your shadow
Why do i feel that this highway is so narrow
Everywhere i go you are in my path
I see you in my future, yet you are also in my past

On this night, On this highway
I will be on my way to say goodbye
My car is set to another journey
To a place where we will not see

I am on my way back to reality
For i have been traveling on this fantasy
But then i heard your voice calling me
So my fantasy is also my destiny

why i wrote this poem?

Everyday i feel tensed and stressed from work
But whenever i go home...late at night
A highway with only few cars and a cool breeze relaxes my mind
I do not know why...but being on that highway...helps me to think clearly...to see better and to feel at ease
