  • ✦ Words I never said

    Time never lingers, never waits.People drift in, people fade out.Mountains shift, rivers carve new paths,Tides rise and retreat, unbothered by the past.Yet here I stand, grasping at hope—A fragile thread, a red string of fate,Waiting for someone to find me and bring me home.But I have learnt…Expression matters.Because we never knowWhen a moment will be…

  • ✦ Outcast

    They say that anyone who’s a stranger to themselves is a stranger to the world.Well, here I am—an outcast.

  • ✦ Is it love, or just an attachment?

    This feeling, so intense it could swallow me whole,Pulls at my heart like a vacuum, drawing me into its depths.Is this my fate, or merely a shadow of what I’ve been taught love should be?I question whether love can truly be this easy—How can I fall when I don’t even know what I’m falling into?The…

  • ✦ Right place, Right Time

    You say I’ve changed, not what i used to be, Why don’t I go back, to the old me? I say no, I’ve grown and I’ve moved on, I will not entertain things that do not add to my dawn. You say, if you want, I’ll make the right place for you, I might think…

  • ✦ Currents of Pure Affection

    With you, I feel calm and relaxed,Like the ocean’s gentle embrace,Waves whispering secretsOf a love so deep, so profound. In this whirlwind of life,Where everything races by,I fear missteps, lost moments,Yet I crave your touch, your love, and your smile. We move together, bodies entwined,A dance in unison with nature’s rhythm,An intimate ballet of soul…
