A Gratitude For Love Poem by Gunardi Santoso

Thousands of memories content and preserve my way.
The laugh we have shared have became a blessing of my day.
For the sake of those moments I wrote these words to keep remembering.
(because) You have given me a beautiful smile as a journey of the beginning.

There will be a time when we lose our hunger and sense of wonder.
It’s the time when we’ve had enough with all of our faith and prayer.
When that time comes, please remember…

There will be a time when we forget about ourselves and become a stranger.
It’s the time when we can’t believe our heart much further.
When that time comes, please remember…

There will be a time when we feel that the world is moving slower than ever.
It’s the time when we despise the present in front of a mirror.
When that time comes, please remember…

There will be a time when we take everything for granted and feel 'bigger'.
It’s the time when we will be left empty handed as a loser.
When that time comes, please remember…

Please remember that I have hoped for you… I do hope for you…

I hope you can always look at the stars upon the darkest night.
Someday… you’ll be mesmerized and surrounded by their light.

I hope you will keep walking during whatsoever circumstances and downfall.
Someday…you’ll realize that it’s not about what has happened but how you choose to end it all.

I hope you never grow weary of yourself and keep ringing the bells.
Someday…you’ll realize that life is too short to live your life as someone else.

I hope you try your best not to take one single breath for granted.
Someday…you’ll realize that God’s love will never leave you empty handed.

And,
I hope you smile when you look above, gazing at the clear blue sky.
Someday… to a serene and tranquil place, you will fly.

Keep smiling, keep believing… (Nonetheless) life is always amazing…
