gone

Gone, gone are those friends
in which naught replaces close in its definition.

Gone, gone are those essential conversations
that forms the important part of relationships in life.

Gone, gone are those flickers of happiness
no matter how ethereal they may be.

Gone, gone are those moments
never to be re-captured ever again.

Gone, gone are those chances
when you could have changed those bad decisions then.

Gone, gone are those carefree days
where together with your childhood, your youth,
and all the sunshine and laughter,
become past memories you long for now.

Gone, gone are those vibrant colors of life,
that fade away along with your very own existence

10 telling signs that I'm stressed

1. Laugh awkwardly
2. Smile, frown, smile frown (you get the point)
   
3. Binge on potato chips and Nutella hazelnut spread
4. Indulge in lots of chili padi (chili pepper)
5. Behaving like a true-blue insomniac, complete with no. 3 & 4 in the wee hours of the morning
6. Hairstyle that looks like I just got off the bed
   
7. Run while listening to metal,rock music or just Alanis Morissette's songs
8. Pile up stacks of research materials on my bedroom floor
9. Ordering overly-sweet coffee like toffee nut latte when all I want is a cup of cappuccino
10. Singing at the top of my voice when I drive alone

Seriously, I really need to get that punching bag soon...
