F I write from my heart
It’s a strange kind of blessing, feeling everything this deeply. People say I fall too fast but maybe I just love without rationing my heart. I feel the shifts, darling. The quiet distance. The way the air changes before anyone admits it. I wanted someone who would walk me home. Hold my hand on the heavy nights. Fight for me in the soft ways that matter. Tongue tied whispers made us tone deaf. Two gentle hearts losing each other between the lines we never said out loud. Maybe that’s how it happens love breaking slowly in the spaces we didn’t know how to fill, darling.

Tongue Tied
One breath, we were family the next, two silhouettes unrecognisable. Are we strangers now? I’m unsure. But I do know this: we stood, souls stripped, bare in the quiet between us. I wanted to trust you to lay my heart in your palms like kindling, hoping you’d keep it warm. Still, I ache. Not just for your touch, but for that fierce, wordless belonging.

I didn’t whisper the word love, love, but it lived in the spaces between my silence. We were lovers, once tangled in time, woven between longing and unspoken lines. I thought you were mine this life, a thousand before but love is a river, never still at its core. I carry you softly, not as a weight, but a thread unspooled, surrendered to fate. The wind takes what it will, the tide pulls away, time reweaving love in its own quiet way. I walk away, not for lack of care but because I found myself standing there. Alone in the mirror, whole and new, with love not just for us, but for me too. No regrets, no chains, no need to hold on, what was once ours has already moved on. So I leave you with love, with nothing to keep, just echoes of us, where the memories sleep. And though our roads stretch far and wide, I’ll smile at the thought of you by my side. Not as my lover, not in my arms, but as a lesson, a light, a once burning flame

We were lovers but now we’re two cars passing a freeway I take a look back in the review mirror, like it was yesterday wrapped up in each other’s arms, looking at the stars soaking from tears of love Two clueless atoms bounding into everything and nothing in one, like an accidental chemical reaction No clue of the long term repercussions Now we're just strangers, with nothing left to say Our love story ended, in a bittersweet way Our paths have diverged, like two roads in the night But I'll always cherish, those moments in the light We were lovers, but now we're just two cars passing by But the memories we shared, will never truly die Our love may have faded, like a sunset in the sky But the impact you had on my life, will never truly die You taught me to love, to feel, to be alive And though we're apart, those lessons still thrive So as we drive away, on our separate ways I'll hold onto the memories, of our love's brighter days And though we may never meet again, I'll always remember you, my dear old friend.

Accidental Chemical Reaction
A stranger stole my heart, Leaving a mark I can’t deny. I never got to touch you, yet I feel you everywhere, As if our souls are intertwined. Isn’t it strange, stranger? Or should I call you beloved, The stranger who stole my heart? You’re not a stranger anymore, You’ve carved a place in me. I saved your love notes, In case they’re the last you’ll ever write. I saved your voice notes, In case I never hear you again. You said you’d return When you stood on your own two feet. I pray to God You find your peace.

A Stranger Stole My Heart
Dancing to the rhythm of the universe, A beautiful, organic chaos. Grateful for the lessons, I drift in a pool of elysium. A wounded healer in progress, Prancing on a satin thread, Woven with multidimensional facets. Allow me to amend the social poison Flowing within this boundless vessel.

Dancing to the rhythm of this universe
I found a place of solitude inside my mind, Self  reflection teeters on the line. I speak my affirmations, shaping my manifestations, Satisfaction on the road to attraction. Through universal connection, I feel it rise, Flowing gently through my consciousness. I am your daughter, twin flame, friend, Teacher or lover, it doesn’t matter For we are all made of stardust and matter, And that is the piece that truly matters.

Affirmations To Affirm Manifestations
I shut my eyes, Tapping into my imagination. Intangible memories, Just figments for now. Hold me tight Don’t let my eyes flutter. I’m staying here; I don’t want to leave. I’ll see you soon, Across these seas Or maybe in my dreams. Ocean tides, Broken promises, And we sip on burnt tea.

Bitter Sweet Love
If my beauty was to measured by progress, Together, we might not feel so hopeless. Tounge tied, our whispers turned us tone deaf — To the ones we hold closest

Tone Deaf Bond
Searching for an ear, Just one. It's a quest for acceptance, Or maybe the solace gun. Hand it over, Prepare to run.
