MỘT BỮA CƠM CHO GIÒI VỌT
Nếu tôi kế cho bạn nghe nỗi sợ hãi của tôi, bạn sẽ tin không? Chúng nó chẳng khác chi của bạn, chúng được bao bọc trong một đặc tính của nỗi lo sợ.
Định nghĩa của chúng ta không nên đề cập đến tuổi tác, nhưng nó là một đặc ân với giới hạn. Tôi đã nhìn vào một cặp mắt đầy ắp nụ cười mà đã không nhận ra người đó là ai.
Ký ức tôi đã lừa chính cả tôi, những sự hoang mang theo đuổi một trí não suy tàn, chìm sâu vào lòng đất tối tăm này là một bữa cơm cho giòi vọt.
Nỗi u uất của những ngày đã qua.

A MEAL FOR WORMS
If I tell you my fears, would you believe me? They are no different from yours, wrapped in an ethos of anxieties.
Age shouldn’t define us, but it’s a privilege with limitations. I looked into the eyes of a smiling face and did not recognize it.
My memories lied to me, and I’m left with just a feeling of bewilderment as my mind regresses into senility, into the deep dark earth, into a meal for worms.
The melancholy of age.

Yup 🤟😄🙂.
When I look in the notifications to see the updates (PC/DESKTOP), they also include the time a particular activity was done along with all of the other relevant details. But I remember noticing that you replied 16 hours ago and thinking to myself that time sure does fly 👍😄😄
Thank you so much for your well wishes, and you take care too and have a great week 👌☺️😄💕
