I looked back.
At all of the posts I had forumed.
I had only started foruming in late '08, but that's still a good 4 years of foruming.
I had changed so much.
Every single friend that forumed with me, every single respectful person I recognised I clicked on.
All of them were banned, bar one who had long gone quit.
Nostalgia suddenly turned dark inside me, like thunder clouds strike a sunny day.
My stomach churned.
Is this what it was like to be old?
Where your best friends and family die before you?
If it is... |

Of course.
But each post, buried among five hundred others in the space of a few minutes.
Trolling became a lame trend.
Insulting became hilarious.
Spamming became common.
I tried to be kind.
I was ignored.
I am in a cocoon, silently weeping in my shell.
One day, everyone will learn.
And then there will be sunshine.
And I will sprout, like a sunflower. |

| Thanks. I didn't really try. I just typed what was on my mind... mind you, that's where best poetry comes from. Pure mind. |

I don't.
It gives you false happiness and then strikes where it most hurts- the memories.
You see your mistakes, your losses, your fails.
And one by one
the history punches you in the balls. |
