The One and Only

Hey, I'm not much of a writer and definitely not much of a story teller, but this time I'll make an exception. This is a life story of a friend, but not the full information. He was born on December 1989, life was hard but as a young age he couldn't see that sign. People say - "eat meal three times a day" - but on the table they ain't got no food, in his innocent eyes all he sees were nothing but good. Although his father was beating him almost everyday, he always knew that someday everything will be okay, all those pains were nothing but a test, to prove that one day he will come out the best.

Time gone fast - the innocent boy I knew now learned from the past. He can now shout that life is a bitch, raise his middle finger to all the people he hates - then trouble came one after another, for a long sweet years he got trapped playing with fire, smoking grass, sniffing rocks, straight to his brain - those chemical dust; - As he walked in the valley of death, he realized something and ended up with tears and regrets - "what have I done to my life all these years" he said, while recollecting all the things that happened, inside his head. When everything seemed so broken and about to crumble - then he met this girl that saved his burning soul, picked him up when he was 6 feet under the ground, in her - he saw hope when it was nowhere to be found, gave him dreams and goals to fulfill, with this girl named Irene - his feelings were real.

Years gone by - and they became lovers, but that's another story for me to cover, colorful moments and happiness embraced him side by side, loneliness and heart broken did not exist - no more in his mind, but we all knows that shit happens no matter where you are, he forgot that one rule in life that left him a one big scar. All those hope and dreams were suddenly disappear, when she was gone - the one and only he hold so dear. It took sometimes for him to recover, the pain was there, but for sure - will not last forever, he moved on forward without looking back, but then he was back in smoking crack, just so he could forget the heavy pain, starring at the window with a heavy rain, with a stick of joint - sucking all that devil's smoke, eyes were getting red with that girl in his thought, from her, he learned what love really was, but brought him so much pain in what love really does.

Days came after, and time seemed so slow, he remembered what mother said - "you reap what you sow". Then he opened the chamber that locked him all his life, found a way out - a new beginning to set things right. He went back to school to gain knowledge, have a degree after finishing college, now he walk in a valley with different passage, life taught him so many things, and with this one message, the quote that he always remember, - "life is a bitch, so don't let it fuck you over". N' all the burden weigh he used to carry was blown by the wind, just like - in a blink of an eye - his life was changed.

Did not take long til' he met another girl - they say - there are tons of fish under water - instead he found a beautiful pearl, he looked at the sky and thank God in heavenly above, "I once lost but You gave me more than what I had" - life is full of mystery with logical shit, you gotta hold on to what you have and be thankful for it, and if you feel sometimes life is pulling you down, you gotta remember - there is this cycle that can turn your life around. Through hardship, you will fall down but need to get up - starting from the bottom, going all the way to the top. That's what means livin' - that's what means life, if you have a dream - never stop the fight.
