Today, 25th of April.
I woke up early in the morning, excited because its the my birthday.
Eagerly got out of my bed hoping for a birthday breakfast!

It all felt so good until i stepped downstairs to the kitchen.
it was empty.... There was no mom cooking the special meal for me.
I thought maybe it will take a while, So i went to the sofa excited near the phone waiting for all the calls i'd get on birthday from my relatives and my dad from his work.

Hoping for all the good presents i'd get and wondering what it'll be like a good boy.

then my eyes glimpsed at the calendar...
I saw the date, it was 25th of April, 2016. I saw myself in the mirror, i was no little boy anymore.
I wont get any presents or calls today.
It hit me to realize there was no special breakfast because my mom had passed away years ago.
my dad wasn't at his work because hes retired and that i wont get a special big present from him.
and that my relatives have all carried on with their married lives and new families.
my heart got shattered to tiny little pieces.

so I just sit here now, looking at the past and all broken down....
About how wonderful life was when you were a child. :c
Now its all just... a depressing road ahead and around.

A gloomy day for me.
be my friend...?

Edit: Thank you for all the warm wishes! Your comments really cheered me up alot! Best community on the internet so far!

If you want to discover a child in yourself again take some improv classes :) Helped me get out of my depression and get some self confidence :)

Happy birthday! :)

True, true. The days when we were kids were awesome and innocent. This reminds me of what my father said once:

When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city to see a marching band.
He said, "Son, when you grow up, would you be the savior of the broken, the beaten, and the damned?"
He said "Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non-believers, the plans that they have made?"
"Because one day I'll leave you, a phantom to lead you in the summer, to join The Black Parade."

edit: was gonna write a longer comment, but then someone came in to my office, so i just posted the picture :/

anyways, sorry to hear about your current situation, birthdays gets more boring the older you get (well there are some special birthdays when you get really old that might be celebrated more)

really hope you have a great day, and remember, SG will always wish you a happy birthday :D (best community on this planet, some times, maybe)

Here in Spain there's a famous quote which says:

"Todo tiempo pasado fue mejor" Which means something like "Past times were better"

But be sure that's not true, you may not be a kid but many cool things will arrive for sure!
So Happy Birthday!!

Oh crap, man. I feel so sorry for you. Happy Birthday anyways. I wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart.

I can kinda relate as my family isn't what it used to be anymore as well.

You're not alone with this feeling, unfortunately... My Btday is close too and besides i'm being married, with kids and a Grand daughter i feel lonely, it is because this date make us remember of older days and old friends. The only option you have is get used to it. Not that your btday need to be lonely, you can meet new people, make new friends. it's just that the life goes on... try to make this day a good one, don't stay suffering with old memories make new good ones! Each day you have is a new opportunity to be happy.
Happy Birthday SGTMakoto, i hope the best for you and your family now and ever. And don't forget, you're never alone if you don't want to.

Happy Birthday!

Welcome to adulthood where ppl forget your birthday and there;ll be times when you forget how old you're getting.
My advice is to buy your favorite food, alcohol and throw your hands in the air like you just don't care. :3
