sad writing for sad days.

expiry dates

i find myself still thinking of you.

as sick as it is, part of me misses you.

i miss hearing you talk or the scent of your hair.

i could only smell it when you hugged me.

our relationship was something long, but also short.

the expiry date was one that seemed to have once come early, but i had

begged for one more chance. i was unfortunately given another chance.

i, frankly, didn't deserve you. you were a friend that made

sure i never went without a birthday present. sometimes a

random present. but things changed once we hit sophomore year.

we grew apart. you had found another friend. oh, how i was jealous. but

an old friend and i continued to build a friendship, that we both thought, since middle school,

would last a lifetime and more. it didn't. so i turned back to the

only other one i thought would always have my back.

you didn't.

slowly, i was realizing that nothing was going to last as long as i had wanted it to.

i was single again, my best friend hated me, the other one was too attached to her

boy, the next one just didn't like me. though, i still thought i had you.

i didn't. we too, expired.

i expired.

the world has become so dull. but there's a small light that's keeping me warm

and happy right now. a kpop band that goes by the name of BTS.

it's almost sad that, that's all i have now. but not so much. but, even they too, have an

exipry date.
