Only in Cambodia - 3

Spent the whole morning just lazing in our room

At noon, we finally get outta room and

decided to go with Mr. Sa Voen's Tuk Tuk

for the big circuit tour

The story begins...quietly... i really like it.

i remember the long passage doors

leading to another and another and another

it was pouring the last time we were here

but today it was peaceful, breezy and calmdiscovering things i did not paid attention to...

colors fascinates me...

missing pieces saddens meand people who live with the temples

i wonder what is their story

u noticed things that i dont

i look at the direction that u're looking at

and i learnt to see things ur way

i like to catch u

unguarded unprepared

with a smile just for me

the nature destroysbut it also beautify"this was the window where i sat and wrote all my postcards that rainy day in May"

"this was the little girl and her pet where i was so attracted to while standing in the rain""legend of the horse with the human legs"

Last May, Shu, Yin & I played
London Bridge is Falling Down with

these NOISY KIDS from Ta Som

and yes they are still VERY NOISY!

imagine this, the holes in the walls

were decorated with precious stones!

gems, jewels, rubies, diamonds...pretty.

Banteay Samre

a temple I have never visited before

this is will be the first temple

that we actually shared & explored together

I felt a calm emotion before a strong current

I walked behind and followed your steps

I watched your back as you step

through the ancient door

I paused abruptly.... cos

I sense that I could lose you suddenly

but immediately I regain a sense of reality

I called ur name and took a picture

In the end,

We did walked through this door

We sat on the stoned windows

We were both whispering..then

We were holding hands walking

and passing the towering walls

"baby, with each step we take,

we will be passing through the passage of time

and we will go back to the ancient days..."

"it will be filled with water"

" u will be king"

"i will be the concubine"

"we will have parties"

"and u only have eyes for me"

This lil boy, Chai, in Pre Rup, last May.

We lounge here all evening

forgetting the time

forgetting ourselves

forgetting the world

forgetting everything

but remembering everything that we must
