6: it's a december thing

it's december 2010.

the nights are getting colder. your happiness, loneliness, or apathy gets multiplied tenfold.

if you don't have someone to come home to (or if that someone is thousands of miles away), your longing for that person grows.

still hanging onto an old memory? they will just flash back as if it was yesterday.

this is where i come in.

rewind december 2008: i was dumped by some girl.

fast forward to present: i walk along the places i used to see her, along this plot of land in manila called dapitan.

i'd suddenly rise from sleep and suddenly depart from our house and i'd walk along araneta avenue, head on to dapitan via banawe, then walk straight until i'd reach her school where i used to meet her on afternoons just to talk and share the cookies, brownies and other baked sweets she makes.

and yet again, it's like the wounds supposedly heal and here i am with the cutter to open it up again.

how emo. yech.

it's a december thing. nights are colder, emotions are multiplied tenfold.

goodbye, goodnight.
