Occasionally, each and one of us must've felt to have given up on life, confused about existence and how there aren't actually any sane options left; we all must've faced the cruelty of life and fate and knew how it'd felt to have your whole world crumbling down and onto your shoulders.

I am sorry if this will suck like balls. Haven't got my crap right, I have been leaving writing and reading literature for a few months now. I can literally feel myself slowly unlearning how to even write properly, like a Sim. I might take (not-so) a while to update. Hope you guys, whoever you may be reading, enjoy it. *smiley* - Gl.Ach. xx
