Once upon a time, there was a boy called Triste. Triste's family constantly moved about like nomads who move about in search of a greener pasture. This made Triste really really sad. As soon as he were to make some friends, he would be on the move once again, to a place full of strangers. This made Triste a very quiet boy. The only "friends" that stayed with him were his toys. "Friends" that could never share his times of joy and laughter. "Friends" that stayed silent in his moment of sadness and pain. Static smiles that stay still in the presence of tears. Still, Triste strived on..filling his heart with loneliness as the days go by. The only thing that made Triste smile genuinely was the birds who flew with such majestic grace for he too wanted to fly. To fly to a place where his heart would be filled with happiness and laughter.
Seasons came and go. The passing of time, relentless in its journey to find eternity. Triste grew up to be a fine man. A man full of honour, goodness and integrity. One could never find fault in his doings. But behind all the good works he did, lie a man.. emotionally frail beyond his years. A man that hid his feelings behind a fragile mask of a smile. The only joy he found was the breeze of the soothing wind which reminded him of the dreams he had as a young child.
To be continued.
