But love, I am so tired.
The betrayal sits inside me
like an elephant on my chest.
Every fight drags it deeper
not just the infidelity, the lies,
But the why.
Why her? Why them?
Was it my body? My brokenness?
Was I not enough, or was she the dream
You couldn’t resist?
I see her face sometimes,
A ghost…
To the first man I fell in love with…
We live far apart now,
But in my heart,
You never really left.
Memories of us warm my days,
And though I miss your touch,
I keep you close in my mind.
Years and miles may separate us,
But my love for you stays true.
Every little thing, a…
The thought of having you in my bed,
gave me hope
Looking at you while you sleep,
breaks my heart.
The sound of your voice
over the phone is so promising
The sound of your silence
when you sleep next to me,
is like a trumpet.
The messages you send
when you are away,
give me a clear picture of…
I was not born into wealth, but I was born with something far greater: a vision.
From a young age, I refused to believe that riches should measure happiness. Instead, I dreamed of a world where kindness and purpose defined success.

Akira recalled the sound of her parents’ screams, the smell of smoke and alcohol, and the overwhelming feeling…
Sometimes I wonder why it always has to be me,
The one who is left behind,
The odd one out,
The one making jokes that nobody laughs at,
Never anyone’s cup of tea.
I mean, you wouldn’t understand,
Since my face hides it so well.
You won’t see what’s behind this beautiful smile,
Or beneath this extroverted…
Dear youth,
remember you shine.
Celebrated and embraced,
just for being you,
divine.
A little kindness,
goes a long way.
Making the world brighter,
starting today.
Embrace your capabilities,
your unique flair.
Be yourself,
with or without others there.
Find your voice,
make a difference too.
In a world of challenges,
inspire others anew.
Share your stories,
spread hope and light.
Dear youth,
may your spirit take flight.

Life With Me
Why does life with me
Feel so hard?
Like a maid,
Like a slave,
Worst of all —
Like an orphan.
Everything I do
Feels heavy, cursed.
I’m treated like a trashed bin,
A donkey led astray —
No one hears my cries.
Death whispers daily:
This world isn’t for you.
But I cling to strength,
Though I feel useless.
I trust…
