The art of baking therapy ..

been down in the dumps lately ..
just wonder ,
have you ever felt so lost for words ?
have you ever felt so lost in thoughts ?
have you ever felt like you want something so badly and you can never have it ?
have you ever felt so superfluous or worthless
knowing that you wont get reciprocated no matter how hard/much you try/ do ..
just a thought ..
am i clinging on this ambivalence state of mind again ?
sometimes
i just wish i can be cold hearted ..

************

whenever i'm in this dysphoric mood
i wish to buy
retail therapy always work , but it came at the wrong time cuz i'm so broke now .. =(
the only left best alternative ?
baking therapy ..
yes ! baking does glaze me up ..
