I wrote this
one page essay during my first year in
college , particularly last June 27, 2006 . I studied Eight (8) hours away from
our hometown Bayugan, Agusan del Sur. It
was a story of me leaving home and being separated for a long time with my
loved ones.
Away from Home
My mother hugged me before I left home. It was the
sweetest and the warmest she had left in my memory.
As I saw her face, she was not crying nor was smiling
at me – was just an empty space; an empty space, showed no feelings at all. She
left me before I left home, maybe, she
didn’t want to show me those tears and worries about what is going to happen in
my life as I continue schooling for college.
I walked through the door and the memories with my
family in the place where I call home struck me and brought me tears. Tears
which flowed from my eyes like a never ending stream of loneliness and
miseries.
Away from home, that is happening to me right now.
I’m now far away from home , my family and all those people whom I love. I
promised myself that, that was my last cry and I will shed my tears until I
will be back home.
