The signal is subtle
We pass just close enough to touch
No questions, no answers
We know by now to say enough
With only simple words
With only subtle turns
The things we feel alone for one another
There is a secret that we keep
I won't sleep if you won't sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given
We are compelled to do what we must do
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden
So I won't sleep if you won't sleep tonight

A Stained Day
i will never forget this day, today. when i woke up this morning, i knew it was going to be bad. and it was. terrible.
i woke up to the melody of bickering. quarrelling. things being thrown around. bang. bash. "you *&$%#@!!". (SIGH) my parents. again. i just lay in bed, with tears rolling down my temples to my hairline; with my sis sleeping soundly next to me, i didn't want her to hear all that.
then, dentist appointment after 2 years of no check-up. went real well. "you have a beautiful set of teeth. keep it up." had an x-ray to see if my wisdom teeth were there. they were, bummer.
then the all-climatic visit to the vet. my hamster's tumour has been growing larger. and me and my sis decided it'd be better to put him to sleep. these past few days his skin was deteriorating, and yesterday it burst. you could see the tumour from outside. and it bled and bled. it made me sick. made me cry. we went into the vet's office and the look on her face told us everything. "you know what you should do." we just nodded, and a tear rolled down my cheek. we waited outside while she injected it to eternal slumber. then we took Fluffy home, to be buried with his 2 brothers, Furball and Furry. they looked happy. reunited.
i cried a last tear for him. now i'm having my first smile for his comfort.
i love you fluffy. even though i never had enough time to play with you, you were always on my mind. regardless what people say: "why don't you get another one?", no other could take your place, or your brothers' place. i know you're in a better place. :-)
