In the past vs now

Waking up to the night, sleeping in the day, dreaming with eyes open, nightmarish with eyes wide shut.

Back into the school days I want to go. Sweet and simple, little surprises, little pecks, betrayed but loved then loved but betrayed. Chicken wing song hahaha. Cute cars, complications of ya ya sisterhood. Best pals around, drunk on green tea, skipping classes, smoking together, bitching about the days, little dreams, little hopes, cute valentine surprises, loved the balloons and diamond. Our first mobiles, a specially created 21st with 21 gifts. Bottle of grains. Folded cranes. Battles and squabbles. Few angry days. Some baby talk, falling in love again. Imagining our future, picturing the beauty of life. 10 years over in a second.

A second now feels like 10 years. The future is now. The pals are lesser. Surprises lesser but bigger. Only betrayed. Burn the cheese. Drink the wine. Break the bottle. Break the heart. Loved too much. Hurt to boot. Treasured so little.... no, not at all. Cherished to bits, chunks of bull. Blinded totally now. The pink is black. It is no longer there. o-v-e-r. not l-o-v-e-r.
