Day 22 by I-ming

"Everybody has one great story to tell
And spends his whole life telling it.
My story seems to be the story of a boy
becoming a man."


there is an inner child within
everyone of us.

when we were a kid, we can't wait to grow up.

and now, as we aged, we feel that we're aging too fast.

too fast, too little time.

it takes a lifetime to tell stories.

for me atleast, i can't stop telling.

i-ming dedicated his Day 22 to dad.

Dad, an icon figure. someone we look up to.

One day, we will be them.

we will be a man.

someday.

but always, always.

a boy will always live within me.

why? unfulfilled childhood?

regrets.
i wish i can go back in time.
so many things that i would want to fix.

words that i should have said.
things that i should have done.

why do we tell stories?

a psychology retreat to the past of
a writer?

to rewrite a could-have-been scenario?

i wish for many things.

time.
