It's a bitter sweet symphony....
Have you ever felt that you are listening to the right music?
She was feeling like that.The only person that really knew her,was gone.
And the music continued.
There were many people in the funeral.Everyone's dressed in black.They all seemed
sad.....maybe for this or for something entirely different.
There were many clouds on the sky.Probably it would rain.
She was listening to the words of the funeral,but she couldn't concentrate.
Everything irrelevant was on her mind.
She was so sure that if he was there with her he would laugh.He wouldn't have a choice.
So ironic...
But he wasn't there.He was only inside her heart...making her laugh,teasing her,
telling her the best stories he had heard....
And the rain begun.Like the time they were in a street in the middle of nowhere,
backpacking,and trying to find a ride,but in the end no one stopped.
It was amazing.They were so wet,but they couldn't stop laughing!
Now everything was different.
She was standing,feeling the rain on her skin,like he would do.
He always liked the rain!
And suddenly he was standing next to her.Smiling!
"Don't tell me you don't like my funeral?It has everything!The music that you are listening,
the rain that you are feeling and mostly you!"
"You are here?"
"In the flesh!Ok i'm joking!Don't worry, you are not loosing it!"
"But how can you be here?"
"Silly....i always have been here!Do you think i'll leave you now?"
"But you're dead...."
"No i'm not.I'll never be dead for you."
She started crying.
"I love you so much.....WHY YOU LEFT????How couldn't you fight more???"
"It was time.Don't feel sad,you know how much i love you.You think i'll abandon you?"
"No....YOU were always there."
"Like you were there for me.Always.You must never forget our place.
I'll always be there waiting....
And someday we'll be standing again with our backpacks under the rain.....
with everything as our destination."
He faded away.
At that point she couldn't even notice how wet she was.She found some red roses.
Everyone was staring at her.She didn't care.
She looked at the sky,winked at her best friend,she started laughing and through the roses
up in the air!With all the power she had,she screamed:
FOR YOU....MY FRIEND!!!
Now on the hill she was sitting alone,but she knew that he was sitting right next to her.
They were reading books.They were drinking coffee.They were looking at the stars.
Together.
