When the time comes to say goodbye

I went around the house, trying hard to avoid tear drops that have inevitably found their way to the ground. They've been scarily often today, to the extent of escaping my acute sense of touch and taking their own sweet time to dribble down my face, unknowingly. I can't recall those familiar faces which may soon become faded, those voices I've gotten used to hearing every day,the laughter which bounced off the walls everytime someone cracks a joke, the cue to 'smile',the safety shoe joke, the teasing; those waves of tears will hit the marble again.
Thanks for always asking me to 'smile'.
Thanks for the lunch sessions, although Boss thinks that I'm just trying to leverage on your generosity.
Thanks for those words of encouragement, even though I still think that you deserve more credit than I do.
Thanks for those jokes, they make the nastiest customers look like angels.
Thanks for showing me around; I would have never had that chance of a lifetime to delve deeper into this field.
Thanks for the free disposable spoons and forks, although I never learnt to treasure them.
Thanks for that can of half-eaten jelly beans, which attracted a family of ants to my work desk. I kept the can.
Thanks for the salad lunch, it tasted much better than mine.
Thanks for recommending so many makan places to me.
Thanks for being the one to solve the problems I created.
Thanks for helping me even though you could have been busy yourself.
Last but not least, an infinite amount of thanks just for being apart of my life.
I'll miss you all.
