A Bad Restart

As I thought that day would be a fantastic day, a day which I could finish off my internship in stylish ways by holding the hands of every colleague while mumbling touching words which attract teary eyes. I was actually getting ready to fly away from the company which had kept me for 6-months of imprisonment, wallop all the delicious dishes which I could imagined during the farewell dinner.
But things did not turn out well that day, followed shortly by the death of King of Pop, an unexpected call from my course mate shocked me in every inch of my nerve, my mind went blank for a few seconds soon after I was informed that our dear CV was in a very critical condition.
After struggling with the soul reaper for more than two years now, leukemia seemed to prevail. Suddenly, I had no mood to celebrate any farewell functions or whatsoever. This piece of news simply seemed to be too traumatic for me to experience it again. I immediately left the working place a few hours earlier.
Back in the moments when I was still a Form 5 chap, a friend of mine who we thought had been recovered from leukemia, was killed mercilessly by his cruel destiny. That vivid memory has never been forgotten.
5 years later, another friend of mine encountered the same tormenting experience. When we all thought that everything was gonna be okay, the cancerous cells made a come back, owning every remaining cells which were, back then, healthy within the poor body of my friend.
I've never seen his condition turned out to be this way before. He was dispirited and the cancerous cells rendered the appearance of numerous black dots on his skin. I suddenly recalled his once joyful face which basically reflects his optimistic personality. Though he was very tired, but till the very end, he tried to talk to us, despite he was in his half-conscious state of mind. I know he could hear us talking to him, being utterly supportive to him.
This fateful morning, when I was preparing to go for another visit, it was announced that CV had passed away. A sign of relief, for him, as well as for his family members, I reckon. But he was killed at such a young age, I really feel sorry for him.
I thought I could write something fabulous, something cheerful when I make a come back in my blog site. But no, I shall just keep my fingers crossed, pray hard for him and his family members, mourning for the loss of a good friend.

Sorry, I never told you, all I wanted to say.
Now it's too late to hold you. '
Cause you've flown away, so far away.
Never, Had I imagined, yeah, living without your smile.
Feelin' and knowing you hear me.
It keeps me alive. Alive!
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven,
Like so many friends we've lost along the way,
And I know eventually we'll be together.
One sweet day.
Picture a little scene from Heaven.
Darling, I never showed you.
Assumed you'd always be there.
I took your presence for granted.
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared.
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven.
Like so many friends we've lost along the way.
And I know eventually we'll be together.
One sweet day.
Picture a little scene from Heaven.
Although, the sun will never shine the same, I'll
always look to a brighter day.
Yeah, Lord, I know, when I lay me down to sleep,
You'll always listen, as I pray!
And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven,
Like so many friends we've lost along the way,
And I know eventually we'll be together.
One sweet day.
