I know I have changed.
A lot as a person.
I don't laugh at the same kinda jokes anymore,
I don't talk to most of the people whom I used to call my best friends a year ago.
A year has made a lot of difference, indeed.
I don't cry for people leaving me anymore,
I don't care too much about life anymore,
I just sit idle most of the time, doing nothing.
I don't talk as much as I used to,
I don't laugh with the same enthusiasm anymore,
Am going with the flow, trying to survive.
People don't excite me anymore for some weird unknown reason.
It's been ages since I have seen my eyes twinkle when I smile.
For the same reason, I have stopped taking photos.
I have stopped reading books, which I have brought with utmost love and eagerness.
I have lost count of days since I smiled genuinely.
I actually don't remember the last time I felt at
home.
All I need is a hug, a long tight one, one which will probably reduce me to tears.
I need one such 'coz I have stopped being myself.
