It skipped a beat when their eyes met,
And skipped again, with contact set.
His heart raced fast, like an F1 car,
Her soft smile soothed him from afar.

You are on right path if you know that your past self wouldn't be able to handle what you can handle now.

From first day to last,
No one could take off the mask,
Oh, how perfect I have become in this.

Sigh...
I loved a flower so much that I left it to gaze everyday, instead of plucking it off.
It was plucked by someone and then throw away a few moments later,
the flower withered, so did something inside me.

It was a short time,
Just thirty minutes of chat.
I waited all day for it—
Was it worth that?

A smile lingered, soft on my face,
But it faded too soon, left an empty space.
////
After the talk, a smile took its place.
Yes, it was worth it, I’d say.

Look, here
Look, there
Look, everywhere.
You will find inspiration, meanings and happiness,
All you need to do is step forward and look around.

Left with no choice,
the diary flew out the window,
the guitar retreated to its dusty shelf,
books opened, summoning forgotten truths.
Ideal Self wept; Passion Self withdrew,
Real Self emerged, while Societal Self loomed.
