Ephemera.

Have you ever heard about.. Ephemera?

It means, "doesn't last forever". The moment we had, will pass but memories stay.

I remember this day as beautiful as the daisy i've been dreaming of. Evening breeze on the celebration day of mine, i met him. His eyes caught me and suddenly i felt like trapped in a trick i have never been prepared for. The laugh, the smile, the way he slightly poked my weakest part of me and suddenly my colorless river turned blue. Suddenly, the world stopped spinning, the stars stopped blinking, and my heart skipped a beat. Happy, that my heart was about to bursts out yet it saddened me knowing it won't last forever. Into his eyes, i saw my reflection, projecting the imaginary future that later stayed as a scenario. That happy moment i had with him is just way too pretty that my eyes could bear, that my heart could contain. I drowned to my own river in that moment, being pulled away from the surface where the reality lives in. My stomach hurts, knowing this temporary happiness makes it beautiful as if i am flown to the ninth cloud. One blink, i was back to the reality where we live in. Then i realized, the moment i have never expected just went away faster than the north wind. I was hypnotized by the beautiful moment i had with him once in a lifetime, when in the end, they're all Ephemera.

The day you scattered me.
