A Quest that made a difference.
"An unfamiliar place it was,
No faces i could recognise.
Then you appeared,
It seemed like an antique of my mind.
Your piercing eyes shot right through me.
Bulls eye!
Precious jewels were revealed too.
The jewels only your smile holds.
It was unforgettable.
Every minute i ponder,
For the name of this treasure chest.
Then there it was right before me,
On a little tag i strained to look.
Ah-Ha!
Quest was his name!
The sight of that sparkling smile,
And those gorgeous windows to the soul,
I never want to miss.
Attention fell upon you,
And you alone.
A quest it was to capture those fleeting moments,
For i know those treasures will never be mine.
Whatever was caught,
Will be kept deep in my mind,
And forever in my heart."
Then there came a reply. Sweeter still. Totally unexpected. Along with it came a rose. Made of a serviette but beautiful. I clutched both the letter and the flower in my hand. "Let's go!" he said. "To where?" he asked. "The beach." was the reply to his own question. Excited i was. Nervous too. Road we had to cross. He reached out for my hand. For a month he has been there. First time at the beach though. And it was with me. We talked quite a bit. First time out of my 4 day stay. Accents... we both had trouble understanding. Thai, i tried to learn. We enjoyed every single moment we had left together. Then it was time to say goodbye. Finding the right time for the letter. The letter written in english. Yes... but it wasn't anywhere near perfect. Handwriting wasn't any better. Still, it touched me deep down. Interested... he didn't thought i was. Words... he didn't dare speak. A smile made him glad. He wished we could talk. All day. All night. All the time. But i had to leave that day. A faraway place i'd be. Sad you are. Me too. Dreaming of the impossible. Both you and me. You will always be remembered. I hope i will be too.
that look... that YIM (that's smile in thai)... that wink... that name... QUEST!
As these words flow... the tears follow... i'm not sure why... hasn't happened in a long long time... i thought i was fine... until you came along...
Well... Ya... i DO miss you... QUEST!

"Some
people plant in the spring,
And
leave in the summer.
If
you're signed up for a season, see it through.
You
don't have to stay forever,
but at
least stay until you see it through."
