Life Alone
October 11, 2026 Perhaps not every heart will findThe one it dreamed of, intertwined.Not every soul will meet its twin,Or find a love to settle in. Perhaps some paths are meant to windBeyond the love we hoped to find.And some will walk beneath the starsWith no one’s hand entwined in ours. We’ve grown to think…

The woman underneath
October 5, 2026 She used to wake with sorrow in her chest,A restless storm that never let her rest.A glance from him could shift her whole somehow,His silence once could break her, but not now. She used to measure every little thing,The warmth he’d give, the distance he would bring.She searched his face for something…

Beauty Without Proof
October 2, 2026 He tells her she’s gorgeous, he tells her she’s rare,Like somehow those words prove how deeply he cares.But compliments sting in a strange kind of wayWhen the person who gives them still turns her away. He says that she’s beautiful, swears that it’s true,But she struggles to see what he claims that…

Thirteen Years
Thirteen years ago today,The world somehow kept turning.The sun still rose, the evening came,While my whole heart was hurting. Thirteen years of birthdays passed,Of ordinary days,Of moments I have wished for youIn countless different ways. You missed so much – or maybe not.I like to think you’ve seenThe woman I have had to be,And everything…

The Empty Room
September 27, 2026 I think I am beginning to understandthat some things simply do not happen,no matter how desperately you want them to. Some people spend their livesbeing loved in the way I always imagined,someone reaching for them in the dark,someone coming home to them,someone choosing themagain and againwithout ever needing to be convinced. Maybe…

Autopilot
September 26, 2026 I wake up every morning, but I never quite arrive,I do the things I’m meant to do, but don’t feel much alive.I answer when they call my name, and when I should, I smile.I play the part convincingly – I’ve practiced for a while. I work, I help, I listen. I carry…

When silence becomes a weapon
September 23, 2026 I hate that a moment can still ruin my day,That one little glance can pull peace away.I hate that I notice the places you stand,The smiles you give, the moves of your hand. I know things are different. I’m starting to heal.But knowing a thing doesn’t change how I feel.Because once I…

The Devil Revisits
September 20, 2026 The Devil came back when the whole house was still,Not raging with fire, but calm with his will.He sat at the edge of her bed with a grin,Like an old, patient friend she had once welcomed in. “I told you,” he whispered. “I told you before.They leave you behind, then they close…

If I Could Mend You
September 17, 2026 If I could find the pieces that still ache inside,The ones you keep protected, the ones you learned to hide,I’d gather every fragment with gentle, careful hands,Not making you heal faster, than your heart demands. I’d sit beside the places where old wounds left their mark,And bring a little candle to the…

The Healing Power of Tears
There’s healing in the tears we cry,Though all they feel like is goodbye.They fall from places words can’t reach,A quiet truth the heart must teach. We hold so much behind our eyes,The broken dreams, the swallowed cries.The things we wished had turned out right,The grief we carry through the night. But tears were never meant…
