Some people want closeness until closeness requires clarity.
I learned that in the quiet hours,
when the room felt too still
and her laughter still clung to the air like perfume.
Closeness was soft at first —
warm hands, shared breath,
the kind of nearness that makes the world feel smaller
in a good way.
But clarity…
clarity is a mirror,
and not everyone survives the reflection.
I watched her flinch at her own transparency,
like the truth was a light too bright for her eyes.
Some people want intimacy until intimacy requires accountability.
That’s when the colors started draining.
The warmth cooled.
The conversations thinned out like fog at sunrise.
I felt her slipping —
not loudly, not suddenly,
but in the subtle ways people retreat
when they realize they can’t hide behind the version of themselves
they wanted you to believe in.
Intimacy became a door she kept half‑open,
half‑closed,
waiting for me to guess which way she wanted it.
And I got tired of guessing.
Some people want you… until they realize you can actually see them.
That’s when everything went silent.
When her eyes stopped meeting mine.
When her voice lost its warmth.
When the space between us grew sharp enough to cut.
Being seen is terrifying for those who’ve spent years
building walls out of charm, humor, and half‑truths.
And when she realized I saw past all of it —
past the mask, past the fear, past the performance —
she vanished.
Left me holding the echo of something that almost was.
Left me staring at the outline of a connection
that couldn’t survive its own honesty.
And in that emptiness,
I felt myself dim —
not shattered,
but withdrawn,
like a light turning itself down
to protect what’s left of the filament.
I didn’t lose her.
I just finally saw her clearly.
And clarity has a way of breaking things
that were never built to last.

Is the only craving
i need
take me under
your wings
maybe we can be free
for you a dream
is a dream
but for me
its just us
...
in sweet sweet harmony

Hurts seeing you go so fast
But we learn from our mistakes
Thank you for your time
Now I'm lost in the forgotten
And stuck with the broken

It's been a while since we've last spoke
Hows it been for you? Knowing that you're no longer on my mind
Three years of loving, turned into a three year mistake being that you slept with, my once best friend

I miss the subtle kisses
you gave for my birthday wishes
and those nice joyful giggles
you did as you wiggled
i miss breathing in your hair
and holding you with care
slowly slipping into bed
with no care in the world
we slept
in sheer
bliss

It's like my whole life just got destroyed
Even worst than the day she left
Or when the towers collapsed
Only thing is the world isn't there
To mourn the person I knew best
A veteran, a saviour
My grandfather

Dear friend
Its been awhile since we first met
Oh the good times we had
Cooking
Singing
All in the mist of life
As the world crumbled at out feet
You so happened to fall beneath
Ill miss you
And all the things we've done
But now its time to say
You stayed just for fun

Its been so long
Since we spoke
I remember the days
Where id
Run in and poke until you've
Awoken
Now it feels like a joke
The only time you laugh
Is when i burn and crash
Hopefully....
Just hopefully
You won't see me slash

Sitting here patiently
Waiting for
A good laugh
Or a nice smile
As i sit in this black hole
Shredding my emotions away
Happiness
Sadness
Anger
All gone
The ways to express your well being
Dead
And gone
As if i were
Just born
