Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour Then leaf subsides to leaf So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day Nothing gold can stay -robert frost-

i said i would and here i am. here i am in a new space, a new place; its almost another life, and the journey to this has been long and arduous. seven years ago (has it already been so long?) i left the sunset house; a different world. an older place where fridays were the best because it meant that saturday and sunday was on us which in turn meant football at the park with about 30 other people who were equally delirious at the prospect. then again those were different days; memories of hours spent in the warm glow of the dying day met by the coolness of oncoming night. there was a sort of security to the constancy of happenings; i was the master of my world.
then, a long journey to other places; the house in bishan, the house in bukit timah, the house in thomson. now i am here, watching the night fall, turning the tall trees that loom down outside into tall shadows against the backdrop of the velvety sky. sometimes, there are stars and they seem tangled up between the intertwining branches of the trees; diamonds peering out through the darkness.
i once looked on these things with open eyes until i had to throw myself into the progression towards where i now sit by the window of my room. next year will be my fourth year of study as a student of the law; and then what? i don't know. in the silence these questions lose their importance.
my eyes are open again.
