Literary: 7 Wonders
Welcome to the 7 Wonders of Us! These are testament to the history of a boy and a girl, caught up in the strings of fate and swept into a whirlwind of memories. Please keep your emotions in check. The management will not be responsible for any tears, time, and effort put into reading this article. Prepare your hearts for the experience of a lifetime!
The Great Wall Between Us
Built when we first met, strengthened when we didn’t tell each other the truth. This wall is fortified with fear: fear of the truth, fear of commitment, fear of being turned down and its heartbreaking outcome. Yet it’s funny how so many marvel at this beauty. Two sides divided by the wall show imperfections that perfectly complement each other and two sides blind to each other, like how we can’t see the beauty of us together. It’s sad how all but us could see how perfect we are together, thanks to this Great Wall Between Us.
Machu Picture
Taken 13 years ago, it was our first picture together after we conquered the great wall together, well before everything became awkward. This picture symbolized when we first met, marking the start of thousands of unsaid words, years of unconfessed love and much more. I never really understood why I couldn't get rid of it. It just felt like this picture was meant for this list. It’s meant to be a wonder. It's meant to make me wonder why despite seeing different people, despite breaking each other's hearts without knowing, and despite going different paths, in the end, the paths we took just lead to each other.
The Epitome of Us
The Epitome of Us is a statue made to resemble the significance of the great history we have. Built by years of emotions, countless glances, and constant mixed signals, it serves as a symbol of how much history could be told from one figure. I remembered the first picture we took together was on this very spot. We used to never think about our unconfessed love. We never tried to be anything but friends. And this statue stands here because it symbolizes something we already had but never saw.
The Sentiment Colosseum
The Sentiment Colosseum, or the Emotion Amphitheatre, was built to keep your feelings silent, since expressing them might be overwhelming or irrelevant. Used for drama and re-enactments of meaningful moments, this is where one of the biggest unseen battles took place: choosing between fighting for what I felt for you and doing what I thought was right for us. And that’s why they kept a replica of the Epitome of Us: to see its similarity in beautiful destruction. But this is a thing of the past. Nowadays, it's just a tourist spot for those attracted to our story. Although it's full of drama, problems, and setbacks, I still wouldn’t have missed it for the world.
The Pyramid of Infinite Possibilities
The first steps we took and the countless others that followed it, all these create The Pyramid of Infinite Possibilities. Similar to the Sentiment Colosseum, this pyramid consists of stones that represent the problems and challenges that, when put together in the right way, make a glorious sight that earns its spot in the seven wonders. All the hardships and obstacles may drain every ounce of hope you have in you, but seeing how it turns out in the long run makes you realize that all the steps and sacrifices you doubted were worth it.
City of Recollection
Millions of memories were bound together to form this city, from the smallest, most shallow of moments which only the two of us notice, to the grand ones we consider milestones of our “relationship.” Found here is the memory of when my mere attraction for you grew into pure admiration the second I knew you cared enough to listen to whatever I had to say and to be there for me when I failed to keep sane, even if you didn’t know what to do. The memory of the exact moment when I realized we weren’t going to be just friends is forever imprinted on the walls of this city. We were always more than just possibilities, more than just late night conversations, more than how our fears defined us. This city was built to keep and protect precious moments, good or bad, forever. In the likelihood that we ever reach the point of changing, at least some things that never will.
Taj Mahal
The Great Palace built in the city where everything changed for us. After all the unsaid words, unseen feelings, and fear that overshadowed us, we did it! We made it through all of it. Although the timing was never right, the feelings were never sure and fear constantly reigned over the will to make a move, these didn't stop us from somehow finding our way back to each other. Time and time again, the universe reminds us that if it’s right, it’s right. We always deny what’s in front of us and thought that time would change what we feel for each other. But the reality is, nothing good ever gets away. And that’s what makes the 7 Wonders of Us. Thank you for taking the tour. Until next time.
