Here is how much chessy and mushy I can be.
Hyung,
Hello! How was the trip? Did you have a good rest on the flight? The time here in the Philippines is 9:55 AM, probably you already in the south Luzon high way when I am will be done with this e-mail. I was supposed to tell you so many things before you leave this morning, I even went to your with this purpose in, but sadly words didn’t come out. Right words that would exactly contain what I want to mean in my heart. The right words that will reach you and stay with you until you reach your home safely.
Life never ceases to amaze because of so much reasons that my limited nature cannot comprehend. One of these reasons just occurred this morning. While I was walking back to my office, I had this strong urge to get down on my knees and pray. A prayer filled with my deep gratitude to someone up there in the clouds. Some one who continuously weaves my fate and who finally had decided to attach another string belonging to person hailed form across the ocean and from a culture different from mine.
You know, the first thing that I will always remember when I will be thinking about you is how you always look at me with the impish grin on your face. And imagining I might be, but I always love that intense look in your eyes every time I utter “hyung” in an unsure manner. In cultural rules I might be wrong but for me calling someone like you as a big brother is the least I can do. For Hyung who I shared meals with, breath the same air, and experience the same things while staying here in the Philippines; it think a proper endearment is all I can offer.
I couldn’t remember when we met and in what circumstances we became friends. But the only thing that I strongly hold dear is that, Mr. Lee, Solme is a very important person; who I will always cherish and never forget until the end of my time! Seeing him leave, is another blow to my frail psyche.
We might not be seeing each other for the time being.
We might not even have shared a longer time to last a life time.
But I will always be thanking and praying that may Hyung be always of best of health; that he always have that dazzling smile; and always live a life full of peace and love.
Good bye Hyung!

I hate to see Hyung leave,
it makes my big heart grieve;
Because no matter how much I smile;
Deep inside I just truly bleed.
Loneliness and pain, alas! are not new;
Always my heart filled with this same hue;
But suprised I was, while looking back,
my heart pounded and bursted off this chained rack!
Hyung, seeing you leave was another pain I conceived;
Always your smile, forever etched in my memory.
Hyung, in tears I will always pray;
that a life filled with happiness, may the heavens send you there.
