Everything

There are times in life when ……Football was my everything

 

Which I could skip tuition, and go for practicing,

 

And even rewind-forward, on each of Michel Platini’s dribbling,

 

Everything changed until the day I started limping.

 

 

There are times in life when …… Basketball was my everything

 

A piece of paper, hanging to a rope on my room’s ceiling,

 

Every night before I sleep, there’ll be some jumping,

 

Till the count reaching 100 something,

 

Everything changed when I found out there’s no way I could touch the rim.

 

 

There are times in life when …… Tennis was my everything

 

There’s no stopping in the daily 3-5pm training.

 

Everything changed when I found out that badminton was way more interesting.

 

 

There are times in life when …… Swimming was my everything

 

Leaving office at 5:15 sharp is a sure thing.

 

Doing 50laps+ everyday was just refreshing

 

Everything changed when I moved far away from CRC.

 

 

There are times in life when …… Cross Country was my everything

 

I could wake up 6am and go jogging

 

Just to be the top 10 in the Cross Country competition in Chung Ling

 

Everything changed when it becomes boring.

 

 

There are times in life when …… Badminton was my everything

 

My grandpa would give me intensive training

 

And all my racquets, he would do the paying

 

Although I partnered him in most of the bettings

 

We lost more of it, and still he is very encouraging

 

Every Monday and Wednesday 5:30pm he would be waiting

 

For me to come back from tuition and start preparing

 

And off we go to Ramakrisnan, to do some dropping and lobbing

 

And of course, after that, there will be some dining

 

And all the way he will fetch me home, and of he go alone, driving

 

Everything changed when grandpa stopped playing

 

Everything changed when grandpa started leaving

 

Everything changed, but I hold strong, and hopping

 

That the things change must not be this thing

 

As this is what keeps me remembering

 

Of the existence of my grandpa in me within

 

Everything can change, but not this thing

 

As this is what me and my grandpa has been holding

 

I promise you, grandpa, that I will again, start living

 

With all the fire and keeps me burning,

 

As I know that you will always be seeing

 

Over my shoulder, loving and caring.
