It is the season of Madness, March Madness of rejections.

The kind of unreasoned rejections that make you wonder: “Did I do anything wrong?”

Sleepless nights of trying, countless time of asking : “How can I move on?”

Waves after waves of confetti congratulating colleagues,

Waves after waves of anxious waiting for those bold golden words of acceptance from notifs,

Waves after waves of thin white envelopes that open to the the depressing words of

Don’t want you.

Who knows colleges and low love life could shares the same pain.

I never wanted to go there, but unacceptance make it worse. I never liked him, but rejecting me? It still hurts. I know she has 500k, but does that really make her better? She sold her soul,

to the devil- money wins it all.

I’ve lost my pride and wasted my time.

Rage dig a grave for my dreams, left me wide awake. Awaken from dreams of being with him; surrounding myself with the ideal people. Never forget the phrase that burst my bubble:

After carefully reviewing your profile, he reached a decision-

Don’t want you.

Now I’m an ugly-duckling, maybe one day I’ll turn into a swan.

I have to stay strong, the night is still young, my future is still long.

Just remember they’re the fools for losing someone like you.

In new school kickoff with a courageous comeback. No need for a hand,

A lot of times life just goes unplanned.

Don’t cry over nonreciprocal feelings. This time I say to them:

Don’t want you.
