People will betray you.
Some closest to you will leave you.
No one will care about you.
Everything around you will change.

You will cry.
Your heart will be broken.
You will be lost at some point in
your life.
You will fail over and over again.

But then you will wake up one day
and realize that those things happens
to everyone.
And no matter what you go through,
the truth is, life must go on.
You just have to keep moving forward.
If there's a darkness, there's a light too.

Let yourself feel the pain if it exist.

Embrace the grief that way you want it to.

Fall in love deeply, and let your guards down.

Feel the emotions that you are afraid to feel.

It's gonna sting a bit, I won't lie.

But it will make you more human.

she can only
hear the
blaring sound
of guns and bombs
and the
dreadful sound of
thunder and storm
inside her head.

not a single word
came out from her
mouth,
she stopped screaming
for she can’t hear
herself anymore.

your name
speaks a thousand
memories of yesterday

hearing it
brings back butterflies
in my stomach

seeing it
makes me
blush unintentionally

your name
makes my heart
wrench all over again

the ocean and the rain

cried for her,

for the many chances

she let go.


a chance of loving someone

but too frightened by the

thunders and waves

inside her head.

someone broke the news
for sure cause me blues
chills all over my body
starry night sky turned foggy

sitting here reminiscing
day we walk outside raining
you handed me your kaffiyeh
you said "girl, wear this okay?"

you were the nicest
we were the closest
your jokes causes outburst
won't stop til our stomach hurts

expected but it won't sink
now you are gone in a blink
all things comes to an end
rest in peace dear old friend

and just like that, she became invisible
like how humans are oblivious to the
beauty of flowers

yet we are so crazy over roses

her eyes are alluring like the daisies
white petals emblems her
pellucid heart

yet they bat an eye on her

and just like that, she wilted clumsily
as she was only a daisy in the field
of roses
