dear comrade

Losing people
Is like losing parts of me

Very slowly
One by one

Like leaves
They are falling

I stand frozen
At this irony of life

I think this birthday
I am gonna celebrate

Shedding tears
Over lost ones

I understand
I am elder

I shouldn't cry
Vulnerability is unacceptable

But what can I do
I am also a human

I also have a heart
It hurts a lot

How more are to leave
How more are left to lose

Even finest generals
Break once in a while

I am allowed to cry right?
Let's invite all dark forces tonight

I wanna party with them
Idc if I lose my mind

Pour me a whiskey
Let the poison sink in

Until these
Hurtful memories are flushed away
