The real pain is not that the people around you don't see you making efforts to cling on to life, the heartbreak is they see it, make fun of it, and then unsee it.

I want to trust, but I know this same trust will destroy me in the end, as it always does, no matter how many years I take to believe.

"and no one can tell what's inside them — hearts are heavier than the earth and deeper than the oceans."

The older I get, the more I realize the importance of a rainy day, a freshly brewed cup of tea or coffee, and a good book to read,

It is the sheer nerve of the uneducated that leaves me breathless.

I cried in the shower after such a long time. It hurts. People talk and their talks hurt. People talk and don't listen to their own words.
