Oh Thuy, why do you always come to me in my dreams? I dreamt of you last night for the first time in years, and yet it was vivid as ever.
There I was, with my best friend waiting atop somewhere that I know not. I remember just waiting, even to the point where he wanted to leave, but I was sure I wanted to stay. Hours later, I get a call, and as I answer, I hear your voice on the other line. You ask if I was still there waiting, and I said of course. It was then that I saw you sweeping towards me, dressed in white and hair flowing in the wind. Beautiful as ever. You came up to me and we embraced in the sweetest hug imaginable. I didn't let go and you didn't make any move to pull away. In the background, I could hear my friend M telling you "do you know how long he's waited and what you put him through?" We all just laughed.
As we sat there together talking, your smile just melted my heart. Your sweet voice sounding like nectar to me ears. Your eyes, gazing right through me. You told me that it's been so long and that things have changed so much in your life... that you had so much to tell me.
I looked down at your ring finger and noticed there was no ring, and when I reached to your hand you smiled at me as you did years ago.
It was then that I woke up, wishing so much that it had been real. Oh Thuy, why do you always torment me so? Where are you now and do you know that I still think dearly of you?
