Peony Roses

Love is when your heavily pregnant big sister gets on a bus and walks (the sister never walks) 15 minutes to buy your favourite roast duck, just because you're coming to dinner.
When dad secretly asks the sister how you're coping with living out.
When mom walks into a watch shop with you on the pretext of looking for a new watch, only to edge you to try on something you like (and in this case a square-face Chopard Happy Diamonds), and casually say 'I'll need an ocassion'.
When the nephew shows amazingly mature generosity by giving you his new toy to put on your desk at work.
When the flatmate puts fresh lavendar tea by your bedside while you lie there drowsy from the flu.
*
One heart; two addresses.
When people are willing to cross borders, leave jobs, friends, and lives behind,
Just to make it easier.
The one who fills your weekends wins your heart.
*
I still sometimes have the urge to just fly away.

sometimes, the further you fly, the lonelier you get.

sooner or later, home is where your heart still longs for...
