Desolate Platform

The moment I watched the train carry you away. Chilling wind swept over me. Sweet dreams begin to die. It feels like a piece of my soul has been ripped apart. Short trips. A few days here, a week there. I stood there on that desolate platform. Drenched to the bone, both by the rain and by my tears. It feels eerily quiet. The only sound was the relentless patter of downpour that harmonized with my sorrow. Autumn leaves wither and fall. No longer a garden bathed in sunlight, since my world has turned into a desolate winter. We've said goodbye countless times before. But this time, this parting feels different. It's like an unseen force is pulling us apart, threatening to sever the delicate thread that binds us. My heart's forever scarred by the absence of your love. I trace the outline of your name in the mist with trembling fingers. Each passing moment stretches into an eternity. I closed my eyes, trying to hold onto the memory of your warm smile. But reality is harsh. How ...

Golden Thread

Today was the day. Cheerleading tryouts. My stomach has been doing somersaults all morning. Even putting on my makeup was a disaster. My hands were shaking so much, I almost poked my eye out with the eyeliner! I tried to focus on my breathing exercises, but my mind keeps replaying all the possible ways I could mess up. What if I fall during the stunts? What if I can't keep up with the other girls? What if I looked like a total klutz?    But then I remembered that golden thread I've been weaving in my mind. The time I gave that speech in front of the whole school. I was terrified, but I did it! And I aced that math test last month even though I thought I was going to fail. All those little victories added up to make me stronger, you know?    I looked in the mirror, trying to see the confident girl I know I can be. I put on my best smile and headed to the gym. My heart was pounding, but I also felt a thrill running through me.   The tryouts were intense. I stumble...

Violin

The attic held the key to sorrow I thought I'd buried deep within my soul. When rain is drumming against the window, just like it used to when I was little and Grandma would play for me. I found her violin today, nestled amongst cobwebs and forgotten toys. It's dusty, and the strings are a bit tarnished. But it's still beautiful. I remember how her fingers would dance across the strings, coaxing out the most magical sounds.   Tracing the smooth curve of its neck, I can almost feel her beside me. Music was our language. But that was before. The silence that had descended upon our home after your accident is a heavy cloak. Each room held a ghost of your presence—the scent of lavender in your linen closet, the rustle of pages as you turned them in your favorite armchair. I tried to play it, but the music just stopped. It feels like a piece of me is missing, like a part of me died with her.   My boyfriend, Nick, found her music book. He brought it over, and it's filled with...

Never Truly Goes Away

It's been a year since you walked out. I recall the nights we spent together, wrapped in each other's arms, the world melting away. You were my everything. But then as swiftly as it began, it ended. I miss the way your fingers intertwined with mine as you held my hand. I miss the feeling of being loved, truly and deeply. Haunted by what could have been, I'm drenched in sorrow. If only I could rewind the clock, I'd fight harder. I'd do anything to keep you by my side. Time pulls me forward, yet I'm anchored to the past. Sometimes I think I'll never be able to move on. The pain is so raw. It never truly goes away.

Note

Your last note still feels like a punch to the gut. Your words stung like icy needles. What happened to us? Did I do something wrong? Was there someone else? The possibilities torture my mind. One moment, we were two halves of a whole. And the next, you were gone without a trace. No explanation, no warning. Leaving me here to pick up the pieces of our shattered dreams.  Trying to find clues. But there's nothing. Just a blank slate. I miss your laughter, your touch, and your stupid jokes that always made me smile. I miss the way you made me feel loved. The ice cream parlor where our first kiss blossomed like a stolen summer bloom. It's haunted by the ghost of our love. Now these memories are only bittersweet thorns, piercing my heart with every step.  The night deepened, casting an inky veil over the city. I found myself drawn to your old house. Now, it's just an empty shell. I stood there, lost in thought, your hastily written note still clutched in my trembling hand. The r...

Move

Gentle breeze carrying the sweet scent of blooming flowers. I sit on the porch swing, lost in contemplation. I can't believe it's been almost three months since I left my old life behind. It feels like a lifetime ago.   I remember feeling so lost and alone when we first came here. The unfamiliar streets, the new faces—it all seemed so overwhelming.   The move to a new town had been a desperate attempt to escape the shadows that'd cast a pall over my life. Yet as I packed my belongings, a twinge of apprehension tugged at my heartstrings. Would I find solace in this unfamiliar landscape? Would I be able to weave a new tapestry?   Little by little, I've started to find my place. The sun is shining brighter here, the people are friendly, the atmosphere is welcoming, and even the birdsong seems happier.   My new school is like a breath of fresh air. I've joined the drama club, which has given me a chance to express myself in a whole new way. I never thought I'd have ...

The Same Way

Neon lights reflecting tears upon my face. I'm sitting here, staring out the window. It feels like my life is doing the same thing. The day I discovered your secret, the world tilted on its axis. I felt a piece of me shattered beyond repair. The argument had been the final straw. Your words had seeped into my bones like a cold wind, chilling me to the core. Months of growing tension had finally reached a breaking point.  I confronted you. My voice trembling with anger and betrayal. But you simply shrugged it off, dismissing my pain as if it were merely a minor inconvenience. How could you be so heartless? I remember the day we met. The spark that ignited between us when our hearts beat as one. This city was once our playground. Your laughter used to be a melody to chase away my blues. I swear, it felt like a dream come true. But now those days are gone. How funny that you promised eternal grace but left me here in this dark place. Your heart is a fortress I can no longer breach. I ...

Hospital's Cold Doorstep

Oh, how I miss you. I've lost count of the days since I last heard your voice. I saw you leaving a trail of lilies at the hospital's cold doorstep. And the image cuts through the fog of my slumber.  Darling, where are you? I've spent countless hours pouring over your belongings, searching for any sign that might lead me to you. But all I find are fragments of a life we shared. Your touch haunts my dreams. I sit up, my fingers tracing the outline of a framed photo that lies forgotten on my bedside table. Will you ever come back? Or am I destined to forever carry the weight of this longing? The hope that flickers within me is slowly dimming. My heart now lies barren. The walls of my sanctuary close in around me, suffocating. I long for the comfort of your presence. But all that remains is the haunting echo of your footsteps fading into the distance.

Is It Possible?

"Is it possible that our paths were always destined to converge?" A question that has lingered in my heart like a gentle melody, echoing through the chambers of my soul.   Perhaps it was the cosmic dance of fate that brought us together. Like two rivers flowing from separate sources, our lives converged at a point of perfect confluence. The moment our eyes met, it was as if the universe had aligned, creating a celestial alignment that would forever bind us together.   Each memory is a precious gem. Like the waves crashing on the shore, our feelings have been all over the place. It's been a rollercoaster, yet this love we got has stayed true.   Like a phoenix reborn, we've emerged from the flames. We're more in love than ever. You've always been my light in the darkest of times.   Was it destiny? Or just pure luck? Either way, I'm so glad we found each other.

Extinguished

Another storm raging within me. The world outside my window is a blur of gray. Every raindrop that falls from the heavens seems to carry a piece of my heart with it, washing it away with the relentless torrent. Leaving me feeling more hollow with each passing moment. I am a prisoner of my own house, unable to escape the confines of my grief. I once believed love was a tranquil oasis. But now, it feels like an unrelenting war against forces beyond my control. I feel like I'm drowning, suffocating under the weight of societal expectations. You've been extinguished, leaving me in the darkness of despair. A heavy stone around my neck. I gasp for air in a world that doesn't seem to want me. They paint me as a stain on their perfect little family portrait. It's as if I'm a leech sucking the life from their prized possession. But I'm only a young woman with a heart full of love. Their words feel like a thousand tiny daggers, impaling my soul. I long for the simple days...

Sometimes I Wish

Car horns blared. Commuters hurried past. The distant rumble of the train. The world outside my window was a jarring dissonance to the mournful dirge playing within me. Everything felt muted. Colors now bled into shades of grey. My phone alarm screamed at me, jolting me back to reality. 6:00 AM. Time to begin the charade. I hit snooze, burying my head deeper under the covers.   Sometimes I wish somebody would find me dead in the morning. I stared at the ceiling. The cracks traced intricate patterns against the pale plaster. Thoughts swirled around in my head like a tempest. Why bother? The question echoes in the hollow chambers of my mind. Why bother getting up? Why bother going through the motions? Why bother at all?  What's the use of facing the day? Life went on while I felt like a broken record, stuck on the same agonizing track. Getting out of bed was an insurmountable feat. My body felt heavy, leaden. I stared at my reflection in the bathroom mirror. Who was that girl? H...

Resah

Image
  Hatiku resah terjerat rasa. Jiwaku melayang terbang jauh. Mencari bayangmu, kekasih hatiku. Rindu yang membara bak bara tersimpan. Membakar relung hati. Mengikis ketenangan. Dengan cahaya rembulan, menghangatkan kalbu. Setiap detak jantung, seakan memanggil nama yang terucap dalam lirih angin malam. Di setiap langkahku, jejakmu mengikut. Di setiap mimpi, sosokmu hadir. Namun jari-jariku tak mampu meraih. Oh kasih, dalam gelap kupandangi bayang. Apakah kamu merasakan resahku dalam kerinduan yang tak berujung? Seperti ombak yang tak henti menghempas pantai. Hatiku merana dalam penantian. Merangkai asa dalam untaian do'a. Bahwa satu hari, kita kan bersua. Seperti dua bintang bertemu di langit. Menghapus resah. Menenangkanku kembali.  

"Hai, Cuma Mau Sapa."

Image
"Hai, cuma mau sapa," dia bilang. Suara lembut bagai angin pagi. Hembuskan melodi hati, hangat di telinga. Kata-kata menari dalam sejuknya. Senyum menawan menggugah rasa. Seakan dunia ini tak pernah bengang. Di antara langkah-langkah penuh bahagia, ku lihat sinar memancar dari matanya. Cahaya lembut, berbicara tanpa suara. Menyentuh jiwa. Mencipta ceria. Waktu pun berlari, seolah tak ingin berhenti. Aku terpaku akan pesonanya yang luar biasa.   Kisah ini tak terduga. Tak pernah ingin terulang. Di setiap sapanya, tersimpan ribuan makna dan harapan. Cinta yang tumbuh dari kata sederhana. Seperti bunga mekar, menggoda dalam keanggunan alaminya. Segala kesedihan tersingkir pergi. Meninggalkan ruang untuk kerinduan. Kita berdua di dunia yang bersahaja. Dalam setiap percakapan, terjalin cinta yang nyata. Di bawah cahaya bulan, kita saling berbagi rasa. Dan kepada bintang, sambil bercanda ceria. Senyum kita meluk malam tak bertepi. Cinta ini seperti lagu yang tak pudar.

Lama Berpisah

Sentuhan lembut langit membelai pipiku. Seolah menyeka bulir air mata yang kini mengalir tak lagi terbendung. "Berapa musim telah berlalu?" Jiwa ini bertanya pilu. Hampa kurasa setiap ruang. Ingatan tentang kamu selalu saja muncul tak terduga, seperti bayangan yang tak bisa diusir. Aku mengingat kembali semua kejadian yang telah kita lalui bersama. Senyum pahit yang terukir di bibirku. Hadiah kepedihan. Harapan yang tergerus. Kau telah mengoyak rasa yang kubangun pelan. Cinta yang dulu membara, kini berubah menjadi abu. Meninggalkan luka yang sulit untuk sembuh. Namun di balik setiap gemuruh yang menyerang, tersembunyi benih kasih yang tak ingin punah. Telah kucoba merangkai benci, namun kalbuku beku tak berdaya. Jejak langkahmu dan jejakku, kini terpisah oleh lorong waktu yang membentang. Tahukah engkau, duhai jauh di sana, bahwa rentang dan detik seolah tak kuasa menghapus sisa-sisa rasa yang membatu di relung jiwa? Barangkali memang aku serapuh ranting di musim gugur. Terl...

Kita Akan Bertemu

Menanti jejakmu di jalan sunyi yang penuh ragu. Di balik kabut malam yang menggulung lembut. Di antara bayang yang panjang. Oh, kekasihku yang hilang dalam pelukan waktu... Di manakah kau kini saat terang mulai meredup? Langit kelam menyimpan semua rasa. Bersama angin yang berbisik pilu. Sepi menghantui jiwa yang renta. Menghadirkan seribu kenangan di sana. Satu janji yang terpahat, takkan pudar. "Kita akan bertemu." Namun harapan seakan tenggelam dalam kedalaman pupus.  Di antara bintang dan bulan yang tak pernah sirna. Walau kala membentang, cinta kita sempurna. Di pelupuk mata, wajahmu terukir jelas. Di mana gerangan langkahmu kini? Aku masih menanti kedatanganmu. Hatiku sepi, merindukan hangatnya pelukanmu.

Sudut Sunyi Hati

Di sudut sunyi hati tempatku tersembunyi, di mana bayang-bayang cinta terbuai sepi. Seperti angin yang tak berujung mengembara. Meninggalkan jejak kerinduan yang parah. Luka tergores dalam. Tak kan pernah padam. Ketika kenangan datang merobek malam. Setiap detak jantung, bercerita tentangmu. Di antara harapan dan rindu yang kelabu. Cahaya rembulan enggan menyentuh, saat bayanganmu menari dalam kelam. Bintang pun enggan bersinar di langit hampa. Menyaksikan jiwa ini hancur tanpa rasa. Kisah yang ditulis oleh jemari sepi. Seolah takdir menjadikanku tak berarti. Dalam setiap bait, tersimpan kepedihan. Mengurat warna abu dari cinta yang hilang. Oh, betapa indahnya saat-saat berlalu. Kini hanyalah serpihan puing harapan semu. Di sudut sunyi hati, ku terbaring sendiri. Menanti embun pagi yang tak kunjung kembali. Cinta, oh cinta, kau adalah pedang yang memotong rasa dengan tajam tak terpanggang. Di sini aku berdiri, terperangkap dalam lara. Menanti suara hatimu di batas waktu yang fana. ...

Terulang

Kudengar suara kita di setiap langkah. Menggema dalam ruang sepi. Kenangan itu menari di ujung harapan yang luluh. Apakah bintang-bintang masih ingat padaku? Betapa asyiknya dulu kita mendaki langit tak berbatas.  Dalam khayalan malam, kita menari di batas mimpi. Tangan saling menggenggam, jiwa bersatu dalam eloknya harapan. Namun, ketika fajar menyingsing, keindahan itu memudar. Hanya menyisakan bayangan dari apa yang seharusnya bertahan. Kini, rasa ini bertanya, "Apakah semua bisa terulang?" Atau hanya serpihan pelangi setelah hujan reda yang terus menghilang tanpa jejak? Bisa jadi hati ini hanya terjerat dalam nostalgia. Meratapi apa yang hilang, sementara kehidupan berjalan tanpa kita sadari.

Abadi Dalam Kata-Kata

Image
Bintang-bintang bersinar dalam hening malam. Satu suara lembut menggema di angkasa. Takkan pernah habis kata-kata yang kuutarakan untukmu. Cintaku, sinar yang mulia. Dari lautan rasa, ombak datang silih berganti. Setiap detik menari dalam puisi lembut. Dengan jari-jari angin, aku tulis namamu. Dalam setiap embun pagi, ada wajahmu terukir. Oh, kasihku, dengarlah bait-bait ini. Seperti aliran sungai, tak akan berhenti. Kata-kata ini tulus dari relung hati. Membawa harapan, membawa kasih sejati. Bila matahari terbit dengan ceria dan pelangi menggoda setelah hujan reda, kuucapkan janji dalam setiap warna. Takkan pernah habis kata-kata untukmu selamanya. Dalam gelora angin, suara mengalun harmonis. Menyanyikan cinta yang takkan pudar oleh waktu. Setiap nafas adalah sajak. Setiap tawa adalah lagu. Untukmu, wahai cintaku. Hidupku adalah puisi penuh rindu. Jadi, dengarlah, kasih. Saat dunia berputar, kata-kataku tak akan pernah hilang dalam gelap. Karena dalam setiap detik, dalam setiap lirik,...

Tak Ada Hentinya

Dalam pelukan hangatmu, waktu seolah berhenti berlari. Langkah-langkah kita menari di atas awan impian yang tak lekang. Serpihan bintang jatuh kupersembahkan untuk setiap detik bersamamu. Dalam dekapan malam, aku berjanji akan selalu menyanyikanmu. Tak ada hentinya aku menyanjungmu. Seperti matahari yang tak pernah lelah bersinar. Setiap cahaya yang memancar dari matamu, membawa rasa bahagia tak terhingga. Di setiap bait yang mengalun dalam jiwa, aku temukan keabadian di dalam cintamu. Biarkan hatiku terus bersorak dalam pelangi warna-warna kehidupan. Karena kau, oh kekasih, adalah lagu terindah yang pernah ada.

Kita Ada

Tak pernah diriku menyangka akan ada seseorang menyusuri relung jiwa. Menaburkan benih bahagia di sudut-sudut sunyi ini.   Dia datang seperti embun pagi. Membelai lembut, semerbak harapan. Namun bayang-bayang takut mengintai, seperti awan kelabu menghimpit langit cerah.   Kebahagiaan ini bagaikan sinar yang silau. Membakar jantungku. Tapi di balik nyala, ada angin dingin ketidakpastian yang merayap menyusup ke dalam jiwaku.   Akankah semua ini hanya ilusi sementara?   Seperti pasir yang mengalir di telapak tangan. Akankah dia pergi meninggalkan jejak kenangan yang terkurung dalam sepi?   Setiap senyuman, ada keraguan. Setiap tawa, tersimpan hampa. Di sudut hati yang gelisah, takut kehilangan. Takut terbangun dari mimpi.   Aku belajar merasakan meski terhalang ketakutan. Meski tak pasti berapa lama, aku akan mencintai setiap detik yang kau beri.   Karena mungkin, bahagia yang kita miliki adalah keajaiban yang terlahir ...

Melukis Luka

Warna-warna sendu dalam kebisingan malam. Melukis luka yang tak terhapus. Setiap sapuanku bercerita tentang hujan yang mencuri senyum di wajahku dan mengubah tawa jadi bayang.  Seperti langit kelabu. Tak berbintang. Hanya ada angin dingin yang menembus jiwa. Di sudut hati, aku menemukan jejak. Setiap goresan adalah kenangan yang terperangkap dalam waktu yang mati. Kaca jatuh. Pecahan rasa yang tajam. Sebuah kisah tentang kehilangan yang tak pernah bisa terobati.

Kembali Bersama

Rintik hujan membasahi jendela. Membawa kenangan yang takkan terlupa. Bayangmu hadir dalam setiap hela nafas. Menyelimuti hati dengan rasa rindu yang nyata. Di bawah pohon mangga tua, kita pernah berjanji untuk setia. Senyummu bagai mentari pagi. Menghangatkan hati yang sepi. Jarak memisahkan. Waktu terus berlalu. Oh, rindu ini tak pernah pudar sedikitpun. Setiap malam, kuukir namamu dalam mimpi. Bersamamu, dunia terasa begitu berarti. Aku berharap suatu saat nanti, kita bisa kembali bersama di bawah langit yang sama.

Melupakanmu

Goresan luka merah di malam kelabu. Hatiku hancur berkeping-keping mengingat saat kau pergi. Cinta yang dulu indah, kini berubah menjadi duri. Menusuk dalam. Meninggalkan bekas yang tak kunjung hilang. Bayangmu menghantuiku di setiap sudut ruangan. Ingin kuhapus, namun kenangan begitu kuat mengakar. Langkahku terasa berat. Hatiku pilu. Semua kebersamaan yang pernah kita miliki. Kapan aku bisa melupakanmu, wahai cinta? Walau terus mencoba, namun di balik senyumku air mata jatuh perlahan. Merindukan hangatnya kasih sayangmu. Aku tahu mungkin ini egois, tapi aku berharap kita bisa kembali seperti dulu. 

Kau yang Ku Damba

Angin berbisik tatkala malam menjelma. Bintang-bintang pun menari di angkasa. Setiap detak jantung bersenandung rasa. Hanya kaulah yang ku damba, percayalah. Dalam pelukanmu, rasa ini membara. Hangat cintamu takkan pernah sirna. Denganmu, terukir cerita abadi. Seperti aliran sungai yang setia, hanya kaulah yang ku damba selamanya.

Mentari di Ujung Pagi yang Cerah

Seperti embun menempel di dedaunan, kedamaianmu memberi kehidupan. Setiap tawa, setiap desahan menjadi nada dalam lagu penuh harapan. Wajahmu bercahaya laksana bintang malam. Mengusir gelap yang pernah datang. Dalam pelukanmu, waktu terhenti. Dan dunia pun terasa lebih indah lagi. Bagaikan mentari di ujung pagi yang cerah. Hangat senyummu menyentuh jiwa. Memenuhi relung hatiku yang sepi. Merajut hari penuh warna di antara canda dan tawa. Setiap detik bersamamu tak ternilai. Ku temukan nyata. Wahai kekasih, kaulah segalanya.

Kotak Kayu Tua

Di sudut kamar, kotak usangku berdiam. Menyimpan sejuta kenangan yang terpendam. Indah dan pilu berbaur. Kita begitu dekat dan selalu. Foto-foto pudar, surat cinta menguning, dan sebuah kalung perak.  Tintanya memudar seiring waktu. Namun kata-katamu masih terngiang begitu akut. Ketika bulan purnama, kita tertawa lepas. Kini hanya bayang. Hujan rintik pun tak lagi terasa sama. Liontin hati ini lambang janji kita. Oh, masih ku ingat. Kini terasa dingin, menyayat hatiku yang renta. Aku merangkai kata, mencoba melukiskan rindu pada malam sunyi di bawah rembulan redup. Ingin ku kembali ke masa lalu, saat kita masih bersama.  Ukiran nama kita abadi dalam jiwa. Meski kau tak lagi di sini, cintaku takkan pernah mati. Selalu hidup dalam setiap hela nafas, dalam setiap denyut nadiku yang diam. Kotak kayu tua ini adalah pelabuhan terakhirku, rumah bagi kenangan kita. Dan aku akan selalu mencintaimu. Selamanya.

Rahasia Indah

Di kantin ramai. Hatiku berdebar, seakan hendak memanggil namamu. Tatapanmu menusuk kalbu. Sejak saat itu, dunia terasa berbeda. Kau bagai bintang yang menerangi hidupku. Langkahmu selalu kuikuti diam-diam. Seulas senyum membuatku terpaku. Bagai embun pagi yang menyegarkan. Setiap kata yang kau ucapkan, kuukir dalam hati. Kaulah rahasia indah yang tak ingin kubiarkan pergi. Di bawah langit malam nan penuh bintang gemerlap, kau ucapkan kata cinta. Lalu kita berjanji. Pelukan hangat yang menyelimuti jiwa, sekaligus menjadi sandaran hati. Kekasih, cinta kita abadi. Takkan pernah sirna.

Saksi Bisu

Kenangan tentang dirimu kembali menyeruak, membawaku pada nostalgia masa lalu yang indah. Engkau. Lelaki yang pernah mengisi hari-hariku dengan warna. Di antara serpihan waktu, bisik janjimu abadi, menjadi air mata yang tak pernah kering di pipiku. Kau bilang kau akan kembali. Saat itu, hatiku percaya sepenuhnya. Namun, janji itu perlahan memudar, tergerus oleh sepi yang membentang. Jarak dan kesibukan kita masing-masing membuat kita semakin jauh. Hari ini kita bertemu lagi secara tak sengaja. Di kafe itu, di bawah guyuran hujan yang sama seperti sekarang. Detak jantungku berpacu kencang saat kau menatap mataku. Tatapan itu. Tatapan yang dulu selalu membuatku merasa aman. Senyumanmu pun masih sehangat dulu. Kau masih serupa, tapi entah kenapa terasa lebih dewasa. Kata yang terjalin ketika merajut kisah silam. Terucap pula angan yang kita semai berdua. Segalanya nyata dalam hangatnya bicara, hingga terlupa waktu tak lagi sama. Di altar netramu, kulihat rembulan sendu bersembunyi. Memanc...

Awake

The library hums around me. But the noise doesn't bother me. My reflection in the window is a pale ghost against the twilight. Tonight, the fluorescent lights feel less like a prison. It's like they're illuminating something within me.    I trace the elegant script of a French revolutionary, and a shiver runs down my spine. This isn't just history; it's a rebellion against the numbness that's clung to me for so long.    Remember that feeling? That hollow ache in my chest? It's still there sometimes. Especially in the evenings, when the silence in our apartment screams louder than any words. Mom's at work, of course. Another long shift at the diner. I try to focus on my homework, but the echoes of her tired sighs haunt me.    Before this year, my life had been a monotonous gray.   But then I think of Mr. Chen. When he talks about the past, his eyes practically sparkle! He makes history come alive—the passion, the struggle, the sheer audacity of people f...

Living Like This

I'm starting to feel like I'm suffocating. Mom's been acting so... weird lately. Super clingy. It's like she thinks I'm going to vanish into thin air or something. Ever since that stupid fight with Sarah, she's been on my case. She's always hovering around, asking where I'm going, who I'm with, and what time I'll be home. Ugh, it's driving me nuts!  I know she's just worried, but she needs to realize I'm not a little kid anymore. I'm perfectly capable of taking care of myself. I tried talking to her about it, but she just got all teary-eyed and said she loves me. It's so frustrating! Yesterday, she even went through my backpack! Found that old letter from him. I swear, I thought she was gonna have a heart attack. She started yelling about boys and heartbreak and... it was so embarrassing. I just want things to go back to normal. I need some space. How can I sever the ties that bind us without wounding her delicate heart? I don...

The Careless Hands

I used to believe in you. But now, I see the truth. I am more than the love you once claimed to cherish. The last thing you said to me still echoes in my mind. And the wounds you inflicted run deep. You sought to diminish me. I never thought I'd see the day when your love would turn to ash. You used to be the sun that warmed my soul, just so you know. But then you snuffed out that light. You left me to drown in the aftermath of your departure. I'm feeling despair. Now you stand before me, pleading for forgiveness. You think you can just waltz back into my life. As if you can erase the pain you etched into my heart. You broke me. You shattered my peace. And it's not enough to mend the scars you left. You must realize that the girl who once loved you blindly is gone. I used to see you as my knight in shining armor. But now, I see you for what you truly are: a selfish, arrogant fool. Incapable of genuine love. You thought you owned me, body and soul. But you were wrong. I am n...

Still Burn Within

I never meant for it to turn out like this. I truly loved you with all my heart. But you were being reckless, blinded by anger and fear. I saw the path you were headed down and the people you were associating with. I tried to guide you back to the light.   I thought I was doing the right thing. I thought I was saving you from yourself. But I never imagined it would hurt you so deeply. The look of utter disappointment in your eyes—it haunts me. You saw the truth, but not the whole truth. You saw the shadows, but not the light that guided me.   As you walked out of the door, I felt a piece of me crumble with each step you took. The love we once shared had been trampled underfoot. Now, all that's remained is the wreckage. And I was left to mourn its loss. I have to try. I have to make you understand and see the embers of love that still burn within me.

With or Without

I tried to explain that I need time to figure things out, but you just wouldn't listen. You kept insisting on pruning my spirit, confining me to your tiny cage. You think you know what's best for me, but you don't see the person I am. What about my happiness? I'm not your puppet. I want to be free to make my own choices. But you always try to mold me into what you want me to be. It's suffocating. I'm so frustrated. You speak of tradition and family honor, as if those empty words can justify your iron grip. But honor is earned, not inherited. I just want you to understand that I'm not trying to defy you or cause trouble. I just want to live on my own terms. I want you to love me no matter what. But it seems like that's too much to ask. You claim to love me. Well, I recall the day you tossed me aside like I was nothing. I never thought it would come to this. The man who was supposed to believe in me has turned his back. You see me as a pawn in your grand s...

Strange Pull

There was tension in the air. Your fingers tracing the lines of the picnic blanket. And I saw the storm brewing within you when I met your gaze. I knew you were struggling, trying to understand this strange pull you feel towards me. It was both endearing and a bit alarming. I wanted to reassure you that it's okay not to have all the answers. So, I held your hand. Could you sense the warmth that spreads through your soul? Honey, love is simpler than we make it out to be. I've always believed that it isn't something to be dissected or analyzed. It's felt, not figured out. Love is messy. It's beautiful. And it's often irrational. Sometimes, the best thing we can do is simply embrace it.
