i'm a slug.
a sad miserable slug.
i squirm around in the mud all day.
just trying to pass hell's time away.
.
i'm a slug.
a slimy pathetic slug.
a bird took away my joy today.
because of that i now must pay.
the debt of happiness i took so blindly.

...my aunt, uncle and cousin went home today at 12:05 in the afternoon. i saw them off reluctantly and i swear they could not bear to leave either. Yet, seas seperate and obligation is unavoidable. they had to go. there was no choice. every year, never failing, they come, i smile, they leave... but this year i felt the blow even harder, rougher. maybe it was because i really enjoyed their company this year, i had no obligations, no duties, no dread, so i indulged in their presence and as the days drew to a close so quickly, i started to see, i started to feel, the dread of them leaving. i knew this year would be more difficult to see them go. i might not see my cousin again for a long time, he whom so fondly is called the F.C.(figure it out) we hugged as we said our goodbyes..still overwhelmed by all the memories and thoughts, caught up in the warmth of hugs, my tears were held back. but as they entered the deaparture hall, as they waved from a distance, as they disappeared into the crowd. finally. like a bead of rain from a wet leaf - -
