quiet morning.
it's a day off.
the other day W left a msg for me,
saying G is very sick after the medication kicks in.
i was busy running around,
glanced at the message on my screen,
it hurts me to see those words.
i didn't click it off.
i ran away, for work was calling.
i came back,
the words are still there.
how i wished his pain can be removed,
if i click off the message box.
if only i can do that for him.
i didn't know what to say to W.
after a long while,
when i returned to the screen,
the words are still there, but W is offline.
i thought about calling G,
to ask him how he's holding.
and then what?
what can i do to make him better?
or feel better?
so lost.
i hope he is better now.
i told my students to "seize the day"
after watching DPS.
i am thinking of myself,
not able to do it.
i don't know why it is
difficult.
i hope he is better now.
friends for 13 years,
now i don't know what to say to him.
maybe just a "are you ok?"
will do?
what if the answer is
"i'm getting worse"?
what would i say
to that?
