Dear Diary
Janessa Antao 2002 (Siargao)
Dear Diary,
The moon is bright tonight, yet I can't see the stars beside it.
Dear Diary,
I cried last night, yet when I woke up this morning, I couldn't remember the tears I shed on that night.
Dear Diary,
I saw a half moon smiling at me, but when I smiled back, it faded away.
Dear Diary,
Why is life so lonely?
Dear Diary,
Thank you for listening to me... However, it's so sad because you were just a piece of me.
Dear Diary,
.... For no reason, I asked death, 'what took you so long to take me?'
Dear Diary,
The world is frowning at me, it's so depressing.
Dear Diary,
The leaves fall today...
Dear Diary,
