I didn’t come here to be seen. I came here to survive. To empty my head somewhere that wasn’t my chest. To spill what was too heavy to carry quietly. I wrote because I had to. Because the feelings were loud. Because silence was louder. I didn’t think anyone would really read it. Not like this. Not in numbers that keep climbing like they have somewhere to be. I refresh and it rises again. And I just sit here staring at it thinking — you’re actually here. You’re actually reading. All I wanted was somewhere to vent. Somewhere my mind could unravel without judgement. Somewhere I could let the chaos have language. I didn’t expect thousands of eyes. I didn’t expect that the things that broke me would reach beyond me. I didn’t expect that my quiet release would become something shared. And I don’t know who you are. But thank you. For stopping. For feeling. For not looking away. For holding space for words that were never polished — just honest. I’m shocked. I’m grateful. I’m still slightly in disbelief. Because I came here just trying to breathe. And somehow you’re breathing with me.

I Didnt Expect You
I want to be your forever!!! I know it’s not possible but… Can I be your shoulder in your low times? Can I be your listerner when you turned to be my radio? Can I be your biggest cheerleader when you show your steps? Can I turn as your photographer when you steal my heart with your beauty? Can I be your admirer to your writings? Atlast, can I remain to be your friend until we part our ways???

Can I?
Sometimes I’ll find myself yearning for you out of the blue, my heart will cry out this certain feeling I cannot explain. In that split second I’ll think of nothing but you & the short time we shared in each other’s lives, though it always feels like I’ve known you a life time. All the goals we shared, laughs & smiles but just as quick as I enter and feel that euphoria that tugging in my chest feels of pain. After all I can’t think of the good without a little of the bad when it comes to you, where there were goals there was disrespect, where there was laughter there was tears & where there was smiles left soon left faded frowns. And how could I forget where there was me there was others—many more than I could ever, I would never. I would never make you feel the way you made me feel and it’s something because not once did you ever have to part your lips to tell me I wasn’t enough—in fact I believe I was exactly that and a little too much.. I cared too much I talked too much I laughed too much I smiled too much I saw too much in you I saw too much in “us” to ever notice I wasn’t enough for you nor for me. And that’s okay because I no longer want to be. WordsFromTheSoul // I hope she is everything you need since I couldn’t be.

The opposite of love, is indifference. Not anger, aversion, or hate. Accompanied by avoidant-detachment, And a silence that never abates. It can disguise itself in diffidence; Depressed by misery, for score. Sheltering who practice its persuasion, But leaving its victim longing for more. It looks like a promise that’s broken, It sounds like the melody of a lie. It tastes like a cocktail & bitters; It feels like a passion that died. You can’t see the damage from the outside; The wounds that scar from within. Until they manifest as an addiction, Or any overt kind of sin. Love faces the toughest of battles; Love outshines even the sun. Indifference regards nothing higher; And indifference will perpetually run.
