like the flowing river

be like the flowing river.
silent in the night.
be not afraid of the dark.
if there are stars in the sky,
reflect them back.
if there are clouds in the sky,
remember, clouds, like the river, are water.
so, gladly reflect them too,
in your own tranquil depths.

the old-school romance is much more beautiful than how most people love (or like) each other today.

we won't be able to feel the real sensation of falling in love if we easily and keep changing the person we admire. once we know he/she doesn't has no feeling for us then we leave him/her without giving any struggle to catch the person.

or straightforwardly showing our feeling like a maniac saying his/her name like every one minute at social-networking sites, at our books, or our table.


i think i love the way how people keep secret the one they have a crush on from people, especially from the one they admire. i love the way how people trying to get the heart whom they love slowly, secretly, mysteriously. i mean, it's just the sensation right there i love, the feeling like your chest gonna explode, biting your lip when you fail with the approach, trying to get closer without wanting the person to know that you fall in love with him/her.
