a year ago today, a small thing happened a name appeared, a heart said yes before the mind could think. I did not know then what I was beginning. I did not know I was stepping into something that would matter this much. we were just two strangers on a screen. and then we weren't. how fast it all became real. how fast real became everything. how fast everything became silence. I thought today would be different. I thought today we would look at each other and say: a year. can you believe it? a whole year. instead I am counting alone. marking something that only I remember now. or maybe he remembers too, and says nothing. that somehow hurts more. time moved so quickly to bring us together. then so quickly to take it all apart. and I am still standing at the beginning of it, wondering how a year passed and I am somehow more lost now than I was before I knew him. Happy anniversary to what almost was. to what I thought we'd be. to my 6 May: a day that still means something to at least one of us.

Cold has never been my enemy, and that is why I surrender to winter. The snow descends in silence. The temperature settles into my bones like something ancient, something known. Frozen. And somehow, whole. I would wear this cold forever like a second skin, like armor. The last time warmth found me, it arrived like a candle — soft, inviting, safe — Before it became a wildfire. Burning me alive. So I watched, from somewhere deep inside as it turned me to spectacle, as it made ash of everything I was. Slowly the snow falls over me again, like it means to keep me cold. And even if I stay here, brittle and still, at least the cold will leave me something to bury.

the snow that saved me
i hope my prayers hug you when my arms couldn’t i hope my prayers give you warmth when my arms couldn’t i hope the world is easy on you i’m praying may God bless you as much as the steps you take everyday i hope to God, mentioning your name, i hope he will ease the wounds in your heart i hope you win all the silent battles that you didn’t tell me about under this waxing crescent moon, i pray to God about you i’ll let my tears speak for me on how much i love you through these prayers i speak to Him i hope God may heal both of our unhealed pain i hope we can forgive ourselves and i hope we won't be so hard on ourselves as long as i’m here, you will always have someone who supports you as long as i’m still breathing, you will always have someone who loves you

look
i hope my love keeps you safe and sound everywhere you go i hope the wind touches your skin softly i hope the sun keeps you warm in the morning beneath the nature lies my love upon you i have told rain to soothe you down dear thunder, please don’t blare much as you might make him scared i hope the blowing wind stop pushing its cold onto you and for the sun, i hope it’s not burning your skin each times flowers bloom, i hope they flaunt its scent into you to remind you that nature is alluring to remind that nature is kind to you to remind that i lay my love on you through mother nature’s kindness

sending you my love through nature
when people said “i love you” but i said, “i adore him to the point i thank him for existing” when people said "i love you" but i said, "i would recognise his odor in thousands of crowd" when people said "i love you" but i said, "he is the first thing that i mention through my prayers" when people said "i love you" but i said, "my brain refuses to think about anything but you" when people said "i love you" but i said, "it's crazy how my mind leads to you to every love song that is playing" when people said "i love you" but i said, "he is the first thing i reminisce to every matcha store i stumbled upon" when people said "i love you" but i said, "i would spot his footsteps in a muddy dark forest" when people said "i love you" but i said, "i learn how to cook for him where these dishes are crafted with love" when people said "i love you" but i said, "i have been adjusted to be all ears for him when the whole world turned him down" when people said "i love you" but i said, "i don't want him to translate. i would speak his language, i want learn the language of his soul"

I refuse to say I love you.
this is somewhat unfathomable, but, half of me hates him for what he did, half of me still longs for him. what is this phenomenon, mother nature? why do I still have space for compassions, for him? why do I still see him highly? was it my blinded eyes or love-polluted mind?

was it my blinded eyes?
nothing have i ever laid my eyes on something so tender and soft; the palm of his hand, and the tone he used as he speaks. no matter how far i’ve wandered around, the string of mine goes back to him, a man whose existence caught my existence, 3 years ago, at Brighthelm. something was giggling merrily inside of me the moment i was with him. it was my inner little girl, she was happy. a man that is so serene, a safe place to be with, and a situation where finally she doesn’t have to be in a survival mode. she couldn’t ask for more; that’s what she craves for. that’s enough. that’s enough for the rest of her life. but she murmured, and asked me, will we ever be able to see him again? a part of me highkey wish to say “yes” but fate is something that’s not under my control, so, “i don’t know. we will see. but let’s just pray.”

a happy little girl.
when I was little, mum told me not to go too far, or Iwill be lost she warned me about the monsters and creeps that live inside the forest said don’t go there, it’s dangerous told I might not come back, or turning into one in the living room, she always tells me about them and how they threaten humans for years there was a myth where they harm us as if they’re something that is very dangerous I went back to my chamber staring at myself on the mirror sighs. poor old lady sad to see how much she’s scared of monsters not knowing and realising that all this time, she’s actually given birth to one.
