The gaping holes of life are filled in.

You know it. You always knew it. The moment it passes you, brushes your face, reaches your ears, you know.

At any moment of life, it strikes. And for me, it happened yesterday.

Heavy footsteps pave my way as I walked through the shopping complex. Sounds of conversations burst through my ears. Ignoring them I made through the buzzing crowd and tagging along was a friend. I sensed it. At the very back of my brain, but as a fool I willingly ignored it. Then I heard it.

"But she never even came!", a voice said above them all. I turned and saw brimming tears in the eyes of the speaker. Never have I seen nor felt this in my heart and in my soul. My senses went overboard as the words registered in my brain. I wanted to reach out and console the sad eyes of that angel. But alas, I never did.

Logic overcame me. I knew that talking to a person like that would only bring the worse. So I turned my head and walked away.

I would never forget that face for etched in the ashes of my mind it is. It only shows that life is a game. A cruel one to put it at. Grasping the very nature of it will welcome insanity, pure and whole. So stop and let the Universe envelope you, for why do we bother for such petty things.

For far and forever,
Tears will fall and memories will fade,
We move on and we forget,
As we dance with the angels...
