have a sip of tea - life at first flight

have a pot of tea.

imagine sipping from a warm pot of tea.

when you take that first sip,

what type of tea did you imagine drinking?

is it light?

bitter?

sweet?

was the flavor,

a delicate blend of chamomile and honey?

soothing your senses with its gentle sweetness?

'cause in a world transformed by a pandemic,

a pot of tea became a sanctuary.

its warmth embraced us,

a refuge from realities.

throughout the pandemic,

our lives transformed in unpredictable ways.

in that tranquil moment,

dreams are woven into reality.

dreams intertwined with reality,

a tapestry woven with hope and hardship.

so did you dream a dream?

'cause we did.

ever wonder how one pandemic has changed all of us.

for the better or not,

it depend.

across digital landscapes,

crossing oceans.

we found solace in newfound friendships from corners of the world we'd never have explored otherwise.

new friendships blossomed,

transcending borders,

defying oceans.

oceans were crossed,

not just in miles but in experiences shared.

we navigated this uncharted territory,

how was yours like?

ours was wild.

our shared journey wild and untamed.

some said sometimes it takes ten years to get that one year that changes your life,

ours did.

let me tell you our story for CreateTogether.

and you can decide on what you think.

life at first flight.

once upon a younger year,

knew a pal who was twenty-nine, sincere,

straightened back, bobbed hair,

where are you going with that mean walk?

who are you looking for?

growing up, it was a rebel, free,

always on the run, asking why, "why me?"

so, tell us, what are you fleeing from?

come clean, why do you roam?

in the silhouette, you hide away,

but your heart knows the way, come what may.

guardian's whistle, "just be safe," he'd say,

it never looked back, made no promises to sway,

maybe that's why it couldn't look away,

even for a second, not a single day.

oooh....

without leaving a single footprint,

where did you hurry away in haste?

oooh....

every phrases set it alive,

oooh....

each warm knuckle igniting flames.

no span of shadow left behind,

why did it leave, so breathless and kind?

did you finally meet the person who rarely laugh at jokes?

were it still itself or just a hoax?

who are you waiting for, do you even know?

or could it be, you still thinking of a place to go back to, a warm glow?

when your head rests on its lap, so tender,

brushing your hair, just like when you were younger,

please, let it stay for a while, don't stir,

don't wake it, let it sleep, let it purr.

when your quiet gaze meets its gaze,

will it smile as it once did, a seamless fit?

is there a shortcut to where you are?

when your head rests gently in its lap, an aquarius star.

brushing your hair like when you were young,

if you fall asleep, let it stay, unsung.

don't wake it, let it sleep tight,

that person doesn't look back, no promises, in sight.

maybe that's why you couldn't look away,

even for a moment, come what may.

it is going to sleep, sleep tight,

when it smiles, it fidgets all night.

when your quiet eyes gaze upon it,

will it smile as it once did, lit?

is there a shortcut to your place?

when your head finds its resting space?

brushing your hair like days gone by,

as you close your eyes and sigh,

if you fall asleep, let it be,

in peaceful slumber, let it stay free.

that person doesn't look back, no vows,

perhaps that's why it was drawn somehow,

it's drifting off, so sleep so tight,

ah, when it smiles, it fidgets all through the night.

without leaving a single trace,

where did it hurry away, no hint?

why do you still love it so?

why do you still sing about it, though?

ohhhh.....

why does it love itself, it's clear?

each warm knuckle, feeling alive, no fear,

no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't stay,

without leaving a shadow, why did you go away?

would it still be dancing, so elegantly?

it is a pal who doesn't act its age,

ushie, call me,

ushie, call me,

among the...noisy people,

why don't you just dance a little?

it was curious about it,

its inscrutable face, black sunglasses, and pink hair,

by now, how, why, where, with whom, and to what symphony?

why do you still wait, holding tight?

it spent its life inside a vodka bottle of light.

oooh....

tell us what you're running from,

oooh....

growing up, it was a rebel, on the run.

its bloodline whistle, "just be safe, our violent sear,"

it found hope inside cloud gate, so near.

turned to vodka for survival's sake,

tell us what you're running from, the lesson.

tell us who left you scarred,

oooh....

tell us what it's running from, so hard.

oooh....

dearest ushie, its universe, wide,

to a place it can't dream with its poor imagination, beside.

far away, from king of the planet to aphrodite,

its morning and evening star,

will it please go with it, without fuss?

wherever it may be, an old serenity,

in search of its antonym, with clarity.

for what fault, must they be so,

TOGETHER?

run away from the world, in any weather,

run to the end with it, its ushie,

will it be a bad ending for them two, at hand?

um....

crush it in its arms, a kiss,

love is all, love is bliss.

love, love, love, love, endlessly,

in the end, even though, how is it them, truly?

for them, run away from the universe,

go to the end with its ushie, no curse.

will it be a bad ending for the two gone astray?

with eyes that slowly film it, as you stay.

a serene smiles subtlety shows,

as it gently hovers near, in repose.

will courage rise as it sets, clear and true?

it longs to hold you close, your warmth, your charisma,

run away from necessity, into the uncharted weaponry.

together, run to the end, with its presence so true,

embrace the path with it, your ushie, too.

two of them, side by side, gone astray on purpose,

when faced with all their fears, every day.

when all their shadows disappear,

learn their lesson through the droplets, so clear.

it was getting used to being someone it loved,

until it pulled the rope, from above.

one day, you will leave this world behind,

so live a life you'll remembeerrrr.....
