[i]In todays day and time,
it's easy to lose sight of the true meaning of Christmas & one special night.[/i]
it only comes round once a year, this jolly spirit that tracks every smile down. so for a moment here, i wanna recall, be reminded, & remember.
[b]
JOSEPH LIM[/b] : i dont think anyone deserved that kind of rain-bearing, mad-rushing, gift-hugging-under-ones-s hirt deed especially on xmas eve. i didnt, but you came to my gate anyway, drenched from head to toe, all in mind being to keep santa's hat dry, for me. words are only words, but for now, thank you so damn much. it got me, you got me. from the start of the year, till the end, as now, you've been the magic building up to this final countdown, & my god, i know you are, someone to rely on. im sorry about ugly conversations alright, its christmas so you cant not forgive me (: i think, i know, if we stand around this much, we can stand up to anything. all my love on a very special day, as only we both can remember what last christmas meant, & means. wham ! (:
[b]DIANA NGIAM [/b]: you promised the first, so its the first then, when its make-up time, not only fer dyzyd, but fer us both, yes. its been damn damn long more than i can remember. from being inseparable, we've come to terms with more realistic circumstances now, as we're moving out of adolescence. every now & then, i read excerpts from periodicals, they speak of a certain someone, a best friend, & im telling you, you always have that in me. cos i found one in you, & its taken us a long way, that which im very very grateful fer. you've been there fer almost every possible high & dip, & yes, there have been instances we both avoided the tough realisation of times, but if anything, its only made me surer, that there's no other, like you. beztars (:
[b]LIM ZHIYING[/b] : woman you know that we've both grinned a long way since primary school, you & me. & despite yer retardedness, ( aggravated by yer reluctance to admitting it really ) i love you ( & i know you love me too lah huh ) cos i know i can always look to you, & you'll always put a smile back on my face, just as i'll always wanna be here to stand up fer you, to reassure you, i promise. now that you've got yerself a giant to protect you, im damn happy fer you, cos ive never quite seen you so blissful (: & im glad, cos you deserve this, so much. to two dorks in self-denial (:
[b]GLENDA LEE[/b] : LIGHTYEARS LIGHTYEARS ! funny how we dont fend off suspicions about our relationship being a tad too gay. i suppose theres no need huh (: i mean, if one day curry sees sth in sparrow & they both traipse off, we know we've got each other to hold & hug underneath the moonlight, at a certain bus stop. you're my lifesaver & man, i miss our knowing glances, our wednesday-means-dessert thrills, our purposeless town trips, our buffeting frequencies, our terrible guffaws, our sweet dates & msges, & yes even our bad hair days when we'd snap & then sheepishly apologise after. many things have changed since the start of college, many things have put us in difficult & new situations, but fer everything im thankful, cos its all about omega, ginger ice cream, & the best brown ice kachang you'll ever have. you make me grin inside out, cos we make appalling lists, & give people nicknames someway only we know, somewhere only we go. its not so bad, you're just the best i ever had. girlfriends (:
[b]SMALLTOWNPOET[/b] : its been eventful, & i wouldnt have things gone another way. i see people come & go, like you told me once, how you're meant to be in someone's life fer a purpose, fer a period of time. & now its as though that someone has been me. whatever it is, no hard feelings, & ive never had a more harshly honest phone conversation than the one that night. i think we both remember, & it doesnt go away that easily. its the festival of the human heart, & i wanna wish you a merry xmas. no one calls me fat ass & gets away with it like you do. so this is fer from when we first met, when it scared me finding out theres someone who can resemble me, & know me that well. thanks fer being there, fer staying out of periods to talk, fer singing whenever i got down, fer comfortable silences, fer always making the first move, fer the note behind my handout.
[i]perhaps it was a diffusion of some sort,
of innocence, or an act of providence,
or that you so resembled me[/i].
its been a pleasure, kevin.
the five people you meet in heaven,
& thank with love on xmas day.
locked in snow, its the white xmas everyone dreams about.
