How so strange,
it's only on your birthday people fill
up your inbox.
As is with Valentine's,
the only time you seem to show the most love.

Be it some sort of widespread event.

I've found it sad that people don't cry much for you now,
But can cry a thousand tears when your life is lost. Ever wonder why or how?

Still I ask a question,
why haven't you cried for me in life.
In the times I myself was actually lost,
when things seemed to be down.
Why not also cry a thousand tears of joy once I'm found.

Just a personal observation,
and personal concern.
Please don't think me condescending.
So being that I'm a January baby. Throughout my lifespan, I've really come to notice such an unsettling  type of pattern.

But strangely enough, I always somehow just take it as it is,  and pretend like it doesn't at least scar me bit by bit.
