I've just lost a dear friend. Something which came to me unexpectedly. Received 3 missed calls and 1 message. Christine said that Edwin passed away yesterday. He fainted in his home toilet and could not be revived since then. I heard that there might be a cause of heart failure. A stunning young man who was like a brother to me left this earth. Peacefully.
I didn't know how to react. This feeling is weird, indescribable. A little shocked I would say. I thought I will be ok, till a few hours ago. Listening to my ipod on the way back home, I couldn't help but to think of Ed, the laughter and wisdom he brought to me. I teared. I really couldn't control it. I am really sad.
I guess this is the first time I really cried for a friend. The first time where I really experienced sadness. Throughout the day, I teared a little now and then. On my way out of school, walking past the National Lib, ordering stuffs and in the bus. But when I reached home, I couldn't stop. Tears just kept flowing and flowing. As I am typing this, my hands are shaking and tears are flowing.
On my way to school this morning, I saw this casket van driving past. I was speechless. 'Was that for Ed?' 'Can he fit into that?' Then I sank into emo mode.
Life is so unpredictable. 25 year old. It shouldn't be him. He deserves more than just 25 years of life. One can just go like that. So sudden, so abrupt and devastating. Questions pop up: What happens if I die tomorrow? Why do the good people leave?
Live everyday as if its your last. I won't regret the times spent with him. I just wanna say thank you to this wonderful buddy.
To Ed: Thank you. You were like a buddy, an elder brother to me. You gave me ideas for my project, helped me when I needed help and parted your wisdom to me. Taking the same train home with you after TC sessions were one of the best times we had. You wanted to pass me the two complimentary tix, thanks. I remembered you said that you want that inner star in you to come out on stage. Ed, in our hearts, you'llalways be that star that shines brightly on stage. The one that glows and bring light to the rest. RIP Edwin. I'll miss you.
Edwin Lim 1984 - 2009
