I think, that based on the situation, no, i’m not your friend.
Ever since i came here, i’m having troubles sleeping, even with my trusty MP3 which has lured me to sleep so many times back when i was in SG (no, this has NOTHING to do with you). I was trying to sleep yesterday but my mind totally refuses to let me rest and got me thinking about friendship.
While walking home to the bus stop from school today i was thinking about that too.
It’s creepy, yes i know. Why, oh why do i keep thinking about this weird and random topic. I mean, of all the things to dwell upon, why this?
Maybe it’s because i yearn for friendship, i practically beg for it. Maybe it’s because i’m insecure. Maybe it’s because of my parents. Maybe my past. Maybe this, maybe that, who would ever know.
I like my friends. I love them. I am able to tell them things that i can’t tell my parents. I get along well with them. I like being with them.
Then comes along. This particularly big change of my life. I lost all my friends. I had to start over from scratch. No, it wasn’t easy, and even now, i still couldn’t fit in. I was bounced around when i first came here. Hanging around with people from different cliques. When they got bored of me, i had to move on. When i finally found a clique that shares the same interest as me, i still didn’t fit in. Why? I don’t know. Maybe it’s because people already knew others for a long time. That’s the bad thing. Since everyone already knew each other, no one really tries hard to understand the ‘new kid’. The ‘new kid’ is forced to be alone. Sometimes i really hate that.
I find that i’m ditched all – too – often. You aren’t putting me in your heart at all. You’re just like the others, not trying to understand me at all. I’m the ‘new kid’ that no one wants, and you don’t want me either. Why? Maybe just because i have a weird accent. Maybe i’m just not likable. Maybe i have an attitude. You go along with the rest of the clique and ditch me there. Am i really that detestable?
I fear changes. I don’t like them. Ever since i stepped foot in Canada, i always wanted to go back. It’s this dark little hole in my heart, see. The dark little hole that doesn’t become smaller nor bigger. It just stays there. Over time, it might heal, but there always remain a scar. Always. But who’s going to help me heal the little hole? You aren’t helping. So it’s just going to stay there. Always, just like that. Or maybe you want to tear the hole up, destroy my heart? Yes, that could be the case.
I always hold my friends in the highest regards. I used to believe that if i have friends, everything is okay. But no, not now, now, nothing is okay. I can’t ever tell my parents stuff. I’ve tried, but failed. Believe me. I aren’t close to them at all. Dad’s a cold bastard, and Mom was missing for half my life. I lived in fear of Dad, and before, i yearned for Mom. Even though now that Mom’s back, i don’t find it anymore easier to talk to her. Maybe it was because of the long times i spent apart from her, or something… I just don’t know. Whenever i try to talk to Mom, she ends up saying something about my mentality. About how i kept seeing things in a negative light. Why can’t she see that she and Dad are the ones who made me this way? They were the ones who moved me away. Before, i used to talk to them about whatever happened in school, or just random stuff. I used to watch TV with them. Now, all i see of them are during when we’re eating, and i hardly talk. I’m usually the first one to finish my dinner, and then i’m off to my room. I really want to make up, i really want someone to understand me. But at the same time, i’m afraid. I’m afraid of any more disappointments from my parents.
I always wonder why do people led such good life. I wanted a life like that too. I don’t want to be living such a life. I want to stop crying in a corner alone every time i’m sad.
Friendship is a really complex thing.
No matter how hard i try to keep in touch, they just keep slipping by. No matter how much i hold them dear in my hearts, if they don’t hold me dear, then they’ll just forget me. I’m just making a useless struggle here, trying to hold my old life afloat. I know that people, sooner or later, will forget about me. I know it’s useless to even try, but i want to keep it up. I don’t want them to forget about me. I don’t just want to be stuck with you. I want them. But then again, if they don’t try hard to remember me, they’ll forget about me too. I know that i’ll always hold them dear, after all, my past is what’s most important to me now, but i also know that i can’t make them hold me dear. Even if they forget about me, i won’t forget about them. But, being the selfish shit that i am, i don’t want them to forget about me.
You. Always, always, going of with the rest of the clique, and ditching me. Whatever did i do to you? Really, what am i to you?
You know, Mom and Dad, i really hate them. I really don’t understand why they’d want to kill me from inside out. Fry me. I don’t know, but sometimes i feel that they’re so much closer to Brother than they are to me. They give in to him, they don’t to me. Brother’s young, so he gets whatever he wants. I don’t think i ask for much, but i still don’t get what i want.
Sorrento, you know, i used to envy you. Back when we’re still in PTPS, back in the days where i used to go to your house almost every single day. Whenever i walked home, i would think to myself how great it would be to have a family like yours.
But i know, nothing could change. Not this either.
Why didn’t my parents tell me of their decision?
Why didn’t they ask me of my opinions?
All those are just something that i ponder upon. And never getting an answer.
