Day 15 of the Lunar 7th Month, tonite the moon will be round and bright.

Offered some incense, prayers of peace and calmness.

And a little prayer to a friend.

Someone who left the world, left so abruptly, so suddenly.

She drowned in a swimming pool incident 13? years ago.

Many years have past, i've even forgotten her name.

But i have occasionally felt her presense. We weren't that close, but i remember it was just after our PSLE, saw her and other friends. They were going to another friend's condo for relaxing.

That's the last i saw her.

A few weeks later, i've got news that she drowned. Shock, despair, and sadness. So young.. so much potential.. lost.

Just last week, i heard a voice calling me from behind (my friend, who sits behind, said she didn't call me). Now that i think about it, perhaps she's calling me..

Hence, this post, and the incense burned, is offered to you.

I may forget your name, i may forget how you look like, but know that your presence will be missed by family and friends alike.

Be at peace, my friend.
