Just like a boomerang in your hand
I lie on your hand so willingly, but you throw me away into the air where you cannot see me
As soon as you threw the boomerang away, it came back as swiftly as it disappeared
It is because I am loyal, I am faithful
But you threw me away again and again
Until I am stuck on a big tree, felt so lost and insecure, yet felt betrayed...
My sis and I =)

Definitions Day
morbid-
1.a. Of, relating to, or caused by disease; pathological or diseased.
b. Psychologically unhealthy or unwholesome: "He suffered much from a morbid acuteness of the senses" (Edgar Allan Poe).
2. Characterized by preoccupation with unwholesome thoughts or feelings: read the account of the murder with a morbid interest.
3. Gruesome; grisly.
imbecile-
1. A stupid or silly person; a dolt.
2. A person whose mental acumen is well below par.
3. A person of moderate to severe mental retardation having a mental age of from three to seven years and generally being capable of some degree of communication and performance of simple tasks under supervision. The term belongs to a classification system no longer in use and is now considered offensive.
Jaundice-
Yellow staining of the skin and sclerae (the whites of the eyes) by abnormally high blood levels of the bile pigment bilirubin. The yellowing extends to other tissues and body fluids. Jaundice was once called the "morbus regius" (the regal disease) in the belief that only the touch of a king could cure it.
When red blood cells are removed from the bloodstream, hemoglobin, the molecule in red cells that carries oxygen, is broken down into bilirubin. The bilirubin is carried to the liver and excreted into the intestine as a component of bile.
Jaundice can indicate liver or gallbladder disease. When the excretion of bilirubin is hindered, excess bilirubin passes into the blood, resulting in jaundice. Inflammation or other abnormalities of liver cells hinder the excretion of bilirubin into bile. Or the bile ducts outside the liver may be blocked by a gallstone or a tumor. Jaundice can also result from the excessive breakdown of red blood cells (a process called haemolysis) and too much bilirubin is released into the bloodstream. This occurs typically in the hemolytic anemias (as opposed to the aplastic anemias in which not enough red cells are produced). Jaundice is common in newborns because there is some haemolysis during labor and delivery and the newborn's liver is immature and may not be fully up to the task of handling the bilirubin for a few days. In Gilbert syndrome, the blood bilirubin levels are slightly increased, enough to cause mild jaundice. This genetic condition is usually discovered serendipitously during routine screening tests of liver function. It causes no symptoms and no problems.
The figurative use of "jaundice" in "to view things with a jaundiced eye" refers to an attitude of distaste. This may reflect the distaste with which a jaundiced person views food, since severe jaundice typically brings loss of appetite and feelings nausea. "Jaundice" is often said to have come from the French "jaune" for yellow. This is incorrect. The word "jaundice" stemmed from the Latin "galbinus" which described a light greenish-yellow color. In Old French this became "jaunisse" and, in crossing the English Channel, it became "jaundice." In French "jaundice" is still "jaunisse."
The term icterus is synonymous with jaundice. A person who is icteric is jaundiced. Abnormally high blood bilirubin is termed hyperbilirubinemia.

The Act
Once, there were 2 people, one male one female...They had been best friends for long, and that had made 1 of them feel that this isn't just a normal friend-friend relationship and it could've been more than that...
It was the female who has actually made that step...she feels she could've brought this friendship into another level. And so she asked him:"who do you like? "
The guy doesn't actually know that she loves him that time, but he also has a tiny bit of affection towards her as well...But he didn't have the guts to actually spill what's inside his heart, as he feels that he just has a crush, no more than that.
He replied:"Your best friend, _ _ _."
She replied okay, and then went away. The guy didn't know what it meant, but just ignored that.
Upon a longer time spent together, the guy felt that he actually likes her, but there was a matter in which he had angered her, and she wouldn't forgive him at that moment...
Because of family issues, one had to actually move far away from town and had to leave the other...The guy had actually said sorry to the girl, but it doesn't suffice to be a reason for her to forget and forgive...Therefore, this love had been left buried just like that...XD
