It’s more like something you really like,
Taken away. . .
Somewhere far from your reach.
How many things that were taken away,
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 things were lost,
Returning was not an option,
Resisting the pain,
In the horrible,
Black and penetrating.
Listen, turning 10 is not an upgrade,
Even if you think so!
