Ahhh, if only there was a button to put us in those times. When life was simple. When you woke up, put on your uniform, and went school. Vibed with your friends, played some sport, had stupid arguments with your teachers. At the time we took it for granted, but now we’d do anything to go back. It makes me think, will I look back on now and think “Ahh the good old days…” like I do with those school days. 

Anyway, a deep sadness permeates my heart, and nothing can seem to keep it away. Drugs wouldn’t work. Mindless entertainment wouldn’t. To be honest, being with my friends, talking and laughing, is the only time that sadness makes its way out of my heart. 

But the joy is over before I know it. 

And it happens so infrequently because I barely have any friends. 

What’s left is a sadness in my heart, that stays there and lurks. 

And there’s nothing I can do about that. 

Even if I had a lot of money, I still wouldn’t be happy, because there’d be no one to share it with. 

I’m sad, lonely, and empty.
