Loser

Sometimes life falls apart so loudly that even neighbours wearing headphones can hear it. Everything around you is like a crumpled-up note that's been thrown away, and you're standing in the middle of a night street, gasping for air, as if it could tell you the way out. Mistakes grow into lumps, dramatic and absurd, as if the screenwriter has gone overboard with the twists and turns. But there is an honesty in this catastrophe: to admit that you are a ‘loser’ and still move forward under the stars, because there is nothing else to hold on to. A tragicomedy that sounds almost like an anthem for anyone who has ever dropped their own heart and is now trying to find it under a lamppost.
