his eyes, so peaceful whenever he looks at me
his eyebrows, so thick
his hair, curly, but in a way that I like to caress it for life
his lips, so perfect for mine
his nose, the cutest I've seen

I want to remember each and every detail of your face,
every quirk that you make when you're either
happy, sad, annoyed, or confused,
I want all of them remembered at the back of my mind

that when someone asks my future,
that would be my explanation.

maybe it's the adulting life that's slowly sinking in
maybe it's the harsh reality that makes anyone feel numb
or maybe it's just everyday that there's always a part that we need to be strong

but whatever it is,
whatever the world may throw,
or if everyone else is trying to bring anyone down,

I know that I will always have you,
and it's beyond unimaginable and surreal that you're patient with me,
that you still care for me,
and that you'll always be there,
in these tough times.

thank you for being with me.
I'm so glad you exist.

I witnessed a specific type of bird today.
It was walking through the rocks in the sea, trying to mind and fight the waves.
All I was thinking was, "Can he do it?" not even keeping in mind if the bird has a destination.
"Will he do it?"
"Can he reach the end?" where the end isn't even known.
Then, when the bird reached the almost end of the rocks, I thought to myself, "Can he fly?"
Pure thoughts of hesitations and doubts flew into my mind.
And when the bird flew, I said to myself, "Oh, he can."
Which made me think, why did I doubt the bird that he can fly in the first place?
For today's realization, this bird taught me a lot of things. It taught me to not doubt anyone, and assume that they can't do it when they didn't even show you they tried. And I want to apply it to myself, that I doubted myself even before trying. That, even when the world tries to break me and doubt me, "I" should be the one to start believing in myself as I will always have myself.

appreciating the stars have been easy before
now, even when it's just counting them,
is so taxing

it's how the leaves die
it's beautiful when portrayed as art
but at the end of the day
it's how something is gone when you least expect it

she got so used to sadness
that when it's time to choose
sorrow is the only option
𝙰𝚗𝚗𝚎 May 2022
there's this part of her that's always longing
always sad
always craving for something that will make her feel happy that she doesn't even know
it always comes knocking at her door,
unwanted

they say she needs to tend her own wounds
she needs to heal by herself
and she understands this, one hundred percent

but no one reminded her how hard it would be
how sad it could get
and how lonely it would feel
to heal by yourself
