People show you who they really are in the way they leave not in the beginning anyone can arrive with passion with promises that feel endless but endings tell the truth the way they speak to you when they no longer have to be kind the care or cruelty they wrap around goodbye thats who they were all along not how they loved you when staying was easy but how they handled your heart once they decided to go and maybe that’s why I’m still here holding your heart like something sacred with gentle hands with care that doesn’t disappear just because things became difficult because love reveals itself most honestly in the moments it could choose to leave and stays soft anyway

Endings tell the truth
This is the end The end of running The end of suffering The end of hurting The end of crying my soul forgot its name My darkness overcame I step out of life’s race Not in defeat but in refusal Refusal to keep crying Refusal to keep hurting Refusal to keep suffering Refusal to keep running I created some of my demons Life gave me more None of them will leave So I’ll leave first Let the world keep reaching. I am done reaching back.

This is the end
Huda my love losing you was a new kind of pain but missing you every day has become something worse it sits with me in the quiet in the mornings In lonely nights in all the little things that still feel like they should be ours I still carry you with me in every memory every day every part of me doesn’t want to move on and what hurts the most is feeling it more every day that I may never get to call you my wife again

A new pain
Dont miss me when Im gone Just live for real this time Go be happy in all the ways you couldnt be with me Be free no overthinking no looking back I want you to have everything the kind of love that feels easy the life you always talked about You deserve all of it I just hate knowing I wasnt the one who could give it to you

When im gone
I sit beside you close enough to hear you too far to reach you your eyes don’t find me anymore your smile belongs somewhere else your phone lights up and I disappear you are leaving slowly right next to me I know why I feel it in my chest I did this I did this I want to be better now I am trying now but now feels too late you are building something new while I am still standing in what I broke the hardest part is not losing you it is watching you go and I stay here learning how to live with the one who caused it

As you slowly drift away
when death comes softly to my door i will not greet him as before so long i fought with stubborn breath turning away the call of death now all the battles linger deep their quiet weight i always keep im not afraid just tired it seems like fading fire beneath old dreams ive walked so long through dark and light through endless days and endless nights ive carried hope through every scar and wondered how i made it this far and should he come to me again i think ill welcome silence then maybe ill rest where shadows fall and not feel the weight of it all

Accepting the end
There was a house where silence wore bruises where love came with the sharpest teeth where my pain was spoken as a promise A promise as true as the sun will always rise I was small Small enough to believe That storms were fathers and the thunder was my fault Hands meant to protect Were the hands that broke violent unforgettable leaving scars Like memories living rent free in my mind He tried to break me not always in ways that show on Xrays Tried to bury me under shame under fear under the lie that I was nothing And he did But like a stubborn **** I grew roots in cracked foundations I flourished That I did Years later one thousand eight hundred pounds of steel pressed the air from my lungs metal and gravity conspiring to fold me into the earth Bones screamed The world narrowed Darkness was closing in Time was coming to an end But then my body remembered It remembered surviving hands It remembered surviving nights It remembered that pressure It remembered that pain It remembered it survived many times before So why not again Crushed does not mean finished Pinned does not mean powerless Weight does not mean worthlessness My mind is damaged I feel broken But I survived a childhood that tried to erase me if I could crawl out from under a fathers shadow and from beneath cold merciless steel Then I can survive this too The mind can bruise The heart can fracture Memories can press down like a thousand unseen pounds But I am not new to survival I have been forged in darker rooms than this I have carried heavier things than fear I am not what happened to me I am what grew anyway Although I will never forget I can forgive I will always remember that I am A SURVIVOR TO THE VERY END

Set me free
Just a lost soul like a lone cloud floating Full of rain overflowing Sinking with all this bloating Trying to survive this harrowing The energy is agitating The loneliness comes swallowing
