so far yet so close

does distance matter?
to some it certainly does; but many others never seem to care
how far is actually a distant?
five-thousand miles? twelve hours of flying? the one that takes an intercontinental journey?

it's funny how someone who sits next to you feels like he's so far away
and yet some guy across the ocean can fill your heart like he's right here holding your hand.
doesn't the concept of distant seem confusing? inconsistent?

i was in osaka two years ago; you were at your place.
we were that close. a two-hour flight was all it takes.
airline's penalty fee seemed like no big deal and bangkok was suddenly out of the list.
i could have taken that chance but fate haven't brought us together



then magical cyberworld brought us together
as it brings our heart closer... and closer

all those midnight calls
with our silly talks that go on like forever
all those hours of non-stop fun
your endless laugh
it's kinda magic: you bring warmth into my peaceful nights

you were in jakarta few months ago; i was in surabaya
a one-hour flight was all i need and yet i couldn't make it
hope those midnight calls may compensate how much i really miss you
remember those stories on excess baggage?
next time you're heading for home: don't fly asiana :-)

and now you're back at your place and i'm still here.
a seven-hour direct flight is simply all it takes
is this planet suddenly growing bigger than ever?
feels like the ocean's getting wider
setting us apart... further

but no matter how far and how wide you roam
to me you're always here

someday, somewhere, i know
we'll say hi,
we'll sit,
we'll talk,
like proper adults.

we'll laugh,
i'll probably cry.

i believe that even two parallel lines might someday met

timelessly yours in love,

/me
