feel free to ignore this if it is too sad for u. it brought me down







I loved it when our conversations
were so pure and random.
We would laugh about nothing
and make fun of each other.
Our topics weren't fixed
nor stale and so not original
It was never revolving only
around certain people

with smiling faces we would laugh
at the screen and the others would know why were laughing
but now we just type "lol"
to hide our emotions

all the things we used to have
have been crushed and ruined, stained and destroyed
just like a twig slashing through a spiders web
cracked glass


stained white shirt
shattered chandelier
our fun and friendship
buried under the ruins of selfishness

selfcentered people, people who live to judge others, and to satisfy their feelings
people who only care about their own emotion
laughter, smiles, random shrieks, disses
we loved it, you betrayed it, abandoned it, and left us

you changed everything, all you
We used to be best friends ... supposedly forever
at the time we would do everything possible if one of us is in trouble
we were there when you needed us, but now apparently were trivial
oh so small compared to... that

now, laughter is a disguise
depression has become our permanent mood
our friendship bonding has become loose
and broke apart.
only a few strings are still attached
those made us reconsider
if the triangle still had three sides
whether you still deserve our attention
they all say that true friends can work out anything
now im doubting if were even true friends
i know that we are...

are you?

Crammed Inside

Everything has been. I need to talk. The other option was myself. I think I'll forgo that one.

It used to be so close. Tight. Best friends. Us three. And now? Cuz someone thinks that others are so important, they need to change.
Isn't that what they tell you not to do? To stay true to yourself?
Never mind. You missed the memo. Way back there.

There's no way you know that I'm talking about you now. No way at all. Cuz I've learned to hide it. Very, very well. It's one of those masks. My favorite's the one with happiness and an everything-is-just-fine way of doing things.

I find it pathetic. Be yourself. But nooo. They might notice, and not like it. And change it. I tolerated it for about a week. Then I hit breaking point. And I'm still on the edge.

I still find it pathetic.
