Pretend - to be fine, to smile when your heart aches, because that is what the world demands of you. Every wound, every misery is yours alone to bear. So you learn to tuck it away, to carry it quietly, and pretend that you're oky. Because in this world, vulnerability is a burden no one wants to share.

NO I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE PAIN

I'LL WALK THROUGH FIRE AND THROUGH RAIN

When life breaks us, we feel low,

A hug can fix us, don't you know?

It heals the heart, calms the mind,

Makes us strong, helps us unwind.

We often forget how much our actions matter. Whether it's in our relationships, team or leadership.

Your kindness might last a minute. But to someone else, it can mean everything.

When you bloom expecting them to love your flowers, don't be surprised when autumn arrives and their footsteps fade with the falling petals.

I'm just in pain.

I miss you in the way one misses a childhood home .... Not enough to live there again, just enough to ache when passing by.

Your absence still hums in the quiet, but I don't want you back.

Now I only want the echo, not the voice.

Today, I stumbled upon an old photo of us. In it, we seemed incredibly happy and unbreakable. I gazed at it for a long time, attempting to recall the feelings of that moment. However, the picture lies now.

The heart remembers feelings, not reasons.

The mind moves on, but the heart lingers — in warmth, in ache, in what could’ve been.

And it’s brave to sit in that ache and not demand it disappear.

That’s what healing really looks like — slow, honest, human.

I’m not sure what fate has in store for me or what my destiny holds. Maybe I was always meant to lose some and keep some — people, moments, dreams. Perhaps that’s life’s way of keeping balance, giving and taking in ways we never chose but must learn to live with.

We started as strangers and now we're strangers again but with memories. 🥀

Deep down you know the truth, the world doesn't stop for anyone. Grief settles, memories fade and the spaces you filled are taken over by time. There's a small stubborn part of you that still wishes to be remembered, not forever, but softly. A thought that visits them on an ordinary evening; she mattered.

He's got his ex on a pedestal and I'm just invisible. Pouring my heart out, but he's not noticing. Remembers every little thing she did, but my efforts? Crickets. Sent him flowers on his bday and he said "I don't like flowers". Um, you told me you loved flowers, remember?

Ahhh Feeling stuck in a one-sided love story.

A heart tied in knots of fear and pain,

A love that's fragile, like a heart in vain.

The thought of losing you, a sorrow so deep,

A life without you, my heart would weep.

I fear the day you'll be a stranger's name,

A fleeting memory, a distant flame.

The spark that ignites, the touch that thrives,

Will fade away, and I'll be left to survive.

Your hand, a gentle grasp, I'll never hold,

Your hugs, a warmth, I'll never unfold.

A life with you, a dream, a wish, a prayer,

A forever love, I'll never share.

The thought of you with someone else's name,

A knife that twists, a heart that's aflame.

Someone else's touch, a love so pure,

A heart that's broken, a love that's unsure.

In your eyes, my heart finds a home,

A love so true, a bond that's strong.

But fear and doubt, they creep and play,

A haunting whisper, "Will you be okay?"

I'll hold on tight, to the love we share,

And cherish every moment, every prayer.

For in your love, I find my heart's desire,

A love that's pure, a love that sets me on fire.

The night is long, the winds do sigh,

A lonely feeling passes by.

The stars shine bright in the winter sky,

But bring no warmth, just a distant eye.

I crave your lips like my favorite sin,

A single kiss pulls me deep within.

Soft or rough, I don’t even care,

Just bring them close — I’ll meet you there.

I love to stare when you're that near,

Your eyes speak loud, I feel you clear.

That little smirk, that way you breathe,

I get lost in you — can't ever leave.

Your lips are a drug I need tonight,

One little taste, and I feel so right.

Pull me close, don’t make me beg,

Let’s write our story, skin to skin, leg to leg.

You sit there, and I lose control,

One deep look, you steal my soul.

I watch you breathe, I bite my lip,

Dreaming of that next slow kiss.
