☔️ Don’t forget me all at once Let me slip away in pieces. Lose my voice today, Tomorrow, my laughter, Then that flicker in my eyes. Let my words fade like old songs, Let my kindness dissolve in silence. I want to fall from your memory Like raindrops Dripping from a soaked branch Not like a lifeless corpse. ☔️

Forget Me Gradually
Even when you haven't said a word in years I am still here, thinking and caring about you

Still Waiting
Do not be sad For fate is inevitable, What’s destined will find its way. The pens have dried, The pages have been folded, And every matter has already been settled. So your sorrow changes nothing It neither hastens nor delays, Neither adds nor takes away.

Do not be sad
I hardly think about you Except when the music plays And I realize that no one else In the whole wide world Knows the lyrics But us...

I hardly think about you
Does your silence mean your no? Does your hush mean my cold? Was I not enough, was I too bold? I really thought we had a chance, Paths intertwined, our future in advance. I do apologize if I hurted you in my vain I'm so sorry for the pain. I think it's time for me to make my last vow: To bend my head back and take my last fall. I solemnly swear to love you all the way— Till the earth cracks… till the last day.

I Cried, I Cry, I will Cry...
The red sign has caught up— I've decided I've had enough. The rain is no longer a drizzle; It's soaking me, leaving me brittle. I've tried to show you what to do, But my words don't make it through. You speak of love set to bloom, Yet silence fills up the room. Not with whispers, calm and kind— But with pieces you've left behind. They aren't softly spoken, They're silent and broken. I wish things turned out right But love can't bloom without light I'll miss the "us" we used to try— But still, I leave. This is goodbye.

No More Drizzle
Warm, but it flickers—candlelight gold. You live in fight or flight, I see, Always hoping to break free. You pour out loving words, no doubt, Yet stab me softly as they spill out. I know you don’t mean to—I promise. But how much longer till you promise? I’ll hold the pain, I swear—be honest. I’ll write it down, try to keep quiet, Tuck it away, keep it all private, While my heart sparks a silent riot. Hiding the bold lines that bleed in ink and not my skin, Questioning and asking when And if I will I give in, And let it bleed from my skin. Still, even pain can bloom, if sown.   Loving you might be hard now—   But I won't let you go.   I still want our love to grow.

How Does Your Love Glow So Cold?
I kept telling myself everything is fine, All I need to do is walk the line. Keep my head up — for the past, I need to let go, for once, at last. Letting go is hard. I have to keep myself on guard. Between us, I don’t want to build a wall, I’m just petrified for us to fall. I'll keep drying my tears — but don’t fret, It’s only because I wasn’t ready yet. I'll miss the thought of you, it’s true, But I could never forget my sweet baby boy blue. I'll be here waiting with open arms and heart. I could — and would — never pull us apart. Stay strong, keep your life steady, And just know... I wasn’t ready.

Not Ready Yet
To all the daughters with a father — How does it feel to live my dream? To wake up with both parents under one roof, To know what it means to feel protected? Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers — And Happy Father’s Day to the mothers, too. The ones who had to step up in a father’s place, Who fought silent battles, And carried the weight of both roles. To those mothers — Don’t forget: it’s not your fault. It’s their loss, not yours. Thank you — For taking the place they abandoned, For giving your all while grieving your own loss, For standing tall when you weren’t sure you could.
