memories....

when i'm back here

brother said
we, as a human
cannot forget our root
no root = no tree
no tree = no leaves
no leaves = no flower
no flower = no fruit

he said no matter how far he go
he still love to stay at our hometown

but deep in my heart
im opposite from my brother

i told my mum this sentence when i only 11 years old
" if i got the chance to fly, i will never back here.
i dun wan to stay here for forever"

isn't abt forgetting them time by time
is my dream getting bigger day by day

for sure
i wont forget where i born
what's my sir name

but for sure
i wnt because of this
and stay in a cage

brother bring me back to the place
full with memories

the place that we stayed for more than 15 years

is now developing
my hse actually jz next to the existing hse

our playground when we still kid
the plantation of vegetables

still got lots of places
but sadly
on that time
i dun own a camera
it remain only the memories
