lately,
i've been crying a lot
finished the period-where-i-can-be-as-bitchy-as-i-can, so i can't blame it on the hormones. why do i feel. bleak is the word i could probably used. is this a stage? a phase maybe? i've had one of those. i feel really tired. like my joints would simply disengage themselves, and i'd be left with my head on the floor wondering what happened. i don't even make sense here.
i've been forgetting a lot of things

this. it. made me sad.
AREN'T WE ALL... TERMINAL?
