and in his eyes you see nothing. no sign of love behind the tears. cry for no one. a love that should have lasted years...

so you could actually sent one's mood spiraling down with only two sentences (three, if you count onomatopoeia chuckle as one sentence) written in all non-capital letter, innocent for every eyes except for those which tainted with (hopefully) unfounded jealousy. so, this painful pang who has been my friend for a while...I say hello to you again. I might cuddle only with this blog while I shun away all social media...
