Goodbye 2010, Hello 2011

He has decided. The fight is over. I lost.

One hour and thirty minutes left, 2010 is finally over. I have endured a lot, at least my heart did. I have shed many a tears, tears of joy, tears of sorrow. I have faced new opportunities. I was so brave, I knew I was. I did things I never thought I could do. I had always been the coward, you see. I had always been there in the periphery. Then in 2010 I was changed. I wanted to be the center. I did everything in my power to be the one. Yet, all my efforts, all the tears, all the blood and sweat, all my love and care, wasted like unwanted puppies left to die on the street. I had been thinking all along that I was shining so brightly, I did not know that I was invisible still. At this 22nd hour of the last day of 2010, I shall be invisible altogether. I promise, I swear, you will not hear a word from me. I promise to keep my distance, just as I have sworn to let you go the moment you announce it to the world that I am not the one, just as I have sworn to leave you alone for as long as you are happy. In a matter of 2 hours, I swear to extinguish any traces of me in your life. As I collect all my broken pieces, I shall put them back together in a new way. I will be stronger, I will be tougher, I will be smarter than I used to be. Most of all, I will be more careful. So with this, goodbye 2010, hello 2011.
