i watch
the faded window panes flash lights
that blinds eyes and
pepper ghosts like illusions tease
lethargic mind. hands reach
out yet only to be met
with the glass.
so close to the tarmac on the floor
yet so far.
the vehicle moves, tyres grinding
on said road, passing by broken down
lorry with surmounted debts lain
guilty on window seat. traffic
light blinks, and the
wheels continue to turn.
never looking back,
i watch.

the ace of flames has finally been recovered. my heart sings.

cup noodles and forgotten fishballs swirling in broth like a forgotten record playing nostalgia

School brings upon a huge workload and a huge workload I am having. I'm going to fail my tests and die and shrivel up in a corner and melt into a purple puddle. >:
