Bloom

Don’t live just for the moment, Don’t drift with every tide. Don’t mimic others’ footsteps, Or settle for their guide. No matter how little you have now, No matter how slow you grow, As long as you’re preparing For the future you will know. Like flowers that bloom in their own time, You’ll flourish when […]

LOCKDOWN DIARIES: Things I did and Realized

I know we are all on the same boat adjusting our lives due to these sudden changes bought by the Pandemic. We never realized that in just a year, our life went 360. Some of us experienced being terminated from work, some are still striving to look for a job, some are left with no choice but to stick to their work afraid of taking risk that they may end up unemployed, and the rest are still on the same page still skeptical what to do next.

The anxiety and depression are present until now, and I’m not exempted from it. After six months of being unemployed, I was hired but the company authorized us that we’re in a lockdown. Meaning we’re only allowed to go in our workplace and be back in our accommodation for safety purposes. That went for almost a year and imagine how all of us cope up in that sudden situation. For the first months It’s ok but as time goes by, the feeling of anxiety is slowly making its way to ourselves.

She

  She was born to believe in perfect timing, And so she mastered the art of waiting. She placed her hopes and dreams in written lines, Finding solace in words, her own way of creating. Unlike others who chase fleeting charms, She found joy in quiet pages turning, Wandering solo, humming her own songs, Loving […]

Timing

Out of nowhere, he appeared,Unseen, unexpected, yet perfectly timed.Her eyes, swollen and heavy with tears,Found solace in the light he quietly shined. Her guarded walls began to crumble,With his presence, pain started to heal.The last echoes of goodbye faded,Replaced by stories only he could reveal. A man she never sought nor foresaw,Now stands before her, […]

Kill it now

In a world woven from dreams she dared to imagine,She waits in silence, longing for a pair of wings—Wings to carry away her sins,To lift her up and grant a chance to begin anew. The walls once built to hold her now lie broken,Shattered fragments scattered, lifeless on the ground.Just like her heart, stripped of […]

My first love

I remember those moments when you showed me you cared,And I knew the feeling was mutual, a game we both dared.We ran away, hand in hand, hearts racing fast,Every beat like thunder, hoping this love would last. You sat beside me, strumming your guitar’s tune,I silently wished we’d keep going, beneath the moon.You stayed with […]

Her Story

It’s been almost eight years since their first hello, A glance exchanged, and suddenly—something began to grow. From strangers to friends, it moved so fast, Until they became lovers in secret… a love that couldn’t last. It was strange how easily their feelings bloomed, Late-night chats where trust quietly resumed. The girl felt lightning dance […]

Glimpse of Goodbye

Street lights glowing, cars passing, strangers walking,I stood there alone, in silence, the cold wind mocking.Last night you said, “Meet me at our place, nine-thirty sharp.”So I waited, with hope stitched to my fragile heart. Hours slipped by—still, no sign of you.I called, I texted—no answer, no clue.As darkness crept in and stole the day,I […]

The Mask She Wears

This is the courage she carries each day,When the world around her begins to sway.Like a bird taking flight into the unknown,She gathers her strength, even when she’s alone. This is the fire that keeps her in motion,In a world drowned in pretense and shallow emotion.She hides her doubts behind a carefully worn smile,Knowing the […]

What’s wrong with her?

It was a quiet morning. The kind where raindrops kiss the earth gently, And the world feels slower than usual. There she sat—beside the window, eyes distant. Physically present, but emotionally… hollow. She kept asking herself the questions That echoed louder with each drop on the glass: “Is it alright?” “Am I really okay?” “What’s […]
