The phone was ringing. I could hear it ring many times. I looked around to see who was at the table behind me and why nobody is answering those incessant calls. Then I realized why? There was nobody there. Your mom was away from her table and was talking to somebody at the door. I looked at the caller ID and it was you whose calling. What is this pain I am feeling deep inside me? I would love so much to grab that phone and be the one to answer it just so I could hear your voice speak directly to me. Yeah, even a simple " Hello" would do. Even that kind of "hello" that was not meant to inquire how I'm doing but to instead encourage someone to acknowledge his invisible presence in the other end. Even that kind of hello that wasn't meant for me at all.yeah...I'd settle for that. My soul would.

And it rang again...and a memory of you flashed back in my head. There she is. She now is talking to you. I see she does look like  you. Perhaps missing you in such a different way from mine. Where are you my love? This question is far more complicated than  you think. You are not there...but yes...you aren't. My true love is no longer you. But it still is. Only... you are not the same kind of you in my memory. The man I have grown to love is gone. You are gone. You are not who you were. You never will be. I will soon be gone. I will soon find my way to where you once were. Gone from your memory completely. Gone from every phase of your reminiscences.

Someday...it will be possible to break through the barrier of time and space. I shall walk through the woods at night and hear your old familiar voice call my name. When I look back I'll be 26 again. Sweet,, young...beautiful. But now you're gone... You have become just a favorite story of the past that I'd like to keep telling myself about, over and over again. You cannot interact with me coz you are just a figment of an old love story. I don't know the road to a big timepiece that will take me back to that point in time when someone with your name loved me. I am lost. I have been tricked. I will soon find another road... Where I'd see footprints of a promise about to be fulfilled. Where my true love lies... Waiting ... But never forever .
