A Poem

While you weren't here
I cried every night
A million tears fell
Still my heart wasn't right

While you weren't here
I did what I could
Hoping against hope
My decisions were good

While you weren't here
I gained some in age
Things just went on
And life turned a page

While you weren't here
I just tried to go on
Knowing what didn't kill me
Would only make me strong

While you weren't here
A whole lot got changed
My life became different
My world rearranged

While you weren't here
I had to learn to be alone
To stand on my two feet
To make my own home

So that's where I am now
At this stage of my life
Still scared and alone
Still coping with strife

And oh how I wish that
Things could be different
That I could go back
To a time in the past

To a time before
You weren't here

Going through tough times with my grandmother dying just yesterday, I was totally fine handling my depression but now it's getting out of hand with this uncalled for situation. I thought I'd share this poem, it's very meaningful to me and hopefully to others <3.

Thank you everyone for

Thank you everyone for support, love, and symphony. I appreciate it so much <3.

I know this is going to seem soppy but

I really do love all of you, for being so kind and generous to me and others on here. To be honest, when I first joined this game I thought this was another one of those types of games where people troll to their finest. I also thought people were going to be very immature on this game and mate with other players and all that. I was really wrong lol.

Everyone that I've met on here have been surprisingly mature about public content and generous. I never thought I would be excited to wake up in the morning to see all the interesting blogs people have made and all the kindness that has been shared on the community.

This game has actually helped me. I used to think that most people on the Internet were big douche bags and typically everyone was a jerk. But again, I was proved wrong with this game. It also helped me with my dysthymia, I'm excited to meet new people again and speak with them. About a year or two ago I dreaded talking to people and interacting with society, but now I've come out of my shell with the help of this friendly game.

Thank you <3.

Thank you guys

Thank you guys <3 The funeral for my grandmother is soon, I think I have saved up the courage to attend. I'm not sure that I can look down on my grandmother's sweet face and not see her smile at me, but I will try my best and be there for her and my family. Always. (And hopefully forever <3.)
