A PAIR OF DRUMSTICKS

so much for all the teary eyed comments last night (yes because of my last post, my super friends in high school especially debdeb were oh so reaction paper and crying because we remembered and miss everything back then. yeah. i cried too.), let's take a break first! here is another poem which i wrote for a dear friend of mine. her name is jintot. not the real one you know. it's just the name that i call her. she calls me dintot too. so that's basically the etymology of our names to each other. haha. yeah. she is my classmate in architecure. yes i was an arki then before i shifted to ece. well oh well, technically, we were not classmates because i am in the morning class and she's in the afternoon. oh yeah. but we we still know each other 'cause you know, there are only few arki students. we got even closer because of the exhibit we had. our batch made a 1 week exhibit in our school displaying all our masterpieces. so that was it. like we were almost always together because we were the ushers in the exhibit room. if we have nothing to do, we just jam and sing and play the guitar all day. we got even MORE closer when i told her i was going to shift and that i'll transfer school. she was kinda sad. i was sad too. i gave her a remembrance and in return i asked a remembrance from her. when she said that she'll give me drumsticks because she noticed that i was into drums, i was like O___O!!! i was jumping all over the place and i hugged her after! tight hug! can't believe it. it were original drumsticks. straight from japan! authentic! so there. that explains why my title is a pair of drumsticks. we are friends til now. still close though we are apart and we got to spend few times only. but it's okay. it's part of life and growing up. after all, when we graduate, when she'll become an architect and i become an electronics engineer, we'll have all the time (and the money!) in the world! hahahaha!

A Pair of Drumsticks

Life is full of wonderful surprises

Different fates are drawn in our faces

You’ll never know what your destiny would be

If you won’t accept the unchanged reality

So DESTINY got a herculean task

Two people should learn to remove their masks

Slowly touching each other’s heart

Painting everything into a single art

Then came that night I didn’t expect

A cute little voice whispered on my neck

A humming tune which made me grin

For a splendid friendship is about to begin

We started to know each other well

We began to reveal some secrets to tell

Smiles and laughter we shared as one

I never thought being with you would be this much fun

“Wakwak Moments” as what we call

It’s like our houses are divided by just one wall

Staying so late just to seize the hour

How we both wish that time would run slower

I thank you so much for coming along

And sorry for the things I’ve done wrong

We may not have the stint to bond with each other more

But these memories we have will never fade for sure

I know soon we’ll have to separate ways

Just keep in mind that I am here always

A pair of drumsticks is all I need

To remember the name—jinTOTnid =D
