ViVi 7d

Those who were blessed
to be chosen
Would never feel
What it’s like
to be broken
For they don’t need
to ever be afraid
To ever feel so unfed

things i can put into words better tonight

i don't care if i get in trouble for posting this,
god knows i care, i care so much

it's eating me up how i want to
make everything alright for you
I wish that i could hold you
until everything bad you felt stopped
and i don't care that you're not over him

I'm here till the very last ghost of him
is out of your bloodstream
and all the days after that
if you want me to be

i'm here for all the hope
that one day you will be over him
you'll have closed that chapter

even if i never get to tell you
how beautiful i find you,
in the most non-platonic way i can
i will be here caring for you
in any way you need me to

No one knows, you walked down that lonely path,
No one knows about the battles you fought so hard!
No one knows about the times you got defeated,
When you were cluched in fear that's still deeply seated!
No one knows the amount of courage you held to stay, even when the hope swept away...
No one knows how easy was it to give up, but you choose to stood up.
No one knows the amount of efforts which went unseen...
No one knows the journey was never serene!
No one knows what it takes to fight everyday...
No one knows how hard it is to not find your own way...

Years and years have passed... storms have swayed, shadows have faded, seasons cycled and illustrated.
Ans still...

No one knows how much it takes for all those retakes,
Everyday starting from the very start!!
Everyday when you fall apart!!

Maybe we are the someone we all need to keep reminding ourselves that it might be a long and tough journey but we have all what it takes to boat upstream!

Caits 7d

to learn

it is learning what safety is
without dependence
to trust his hand
knowing he hates fighting
to feel my body
as it rests against his own
to understand
why peace may feel so unsettling
because I've never had the chance to settle into it

Silent Words, Distance Grown✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

They say silence speaks wisdom's truth,
But your quietness drew us apart.
Many times I shared my heart with you,
Whispered love, dreamed of joining hearts.

You never answered with words,
Just smiled and turned away.
I tried to read between your silences,
Yet your true feelings never revealed their way.

Life took turns unforeseen,
Family’s hopes drew lines we crossed.
I moved afar, to foreign shores,
With no trace of you in the chaos lost.

Now years later, I return anew,
Heard you've settled miles away from here.
Still alone, *****, unbound—
How do I comprehend this silent fear?

Your habit of few words, your quiet charm,
Built a distance neither of us planned.
Yet memories of you linger close,
Like whispered shadows, hand in hand.

Speaking less all the time sometimes puts you in dilemma.

side piece

In a swarm of people, but never truly among
conversation after conversation,
laugh after laugh
dinner after dinner,
but never really apart,
always the side piece,
the extra, fading into the background,
and then everyone left,
everyone but me,
For indeed someone must stay,
So, everyone left until it was only me,
Only me and the four walls to keep me company.
