A blue moon ago, I was asked, “What does it mean to love?” Well, I think I have an attempt to an answer. To love someone is to have someone else love you when you hate yourself. Understand the difference in each other, build a bridge to comprehend perspectives. Ground yourself, reteach you how to … Continue reading – untitled love entry –

Thank You
Yellow hoodie, wet from the rain, don’t fade away from such a small stain. Instead, say thank you.
A Love Letter
Dear 11 year old me, I see your world crumbling. I know the walls around you are shaking, the floors breaking. I can hear the sound of the air vibrate so violently, and the strength in your legs weakening. I can see each tear be born, mature, and die. Your eyes tell it all. The … Continue reading A Love Letter
Bridges Burned
It doesn’t take a lot for me to be set off nowadays. And yes, I am ware that no one makes me mad, I choose to be mad at them. Or whatever that old coincident saying goes. But the point of it is that I burn bridges and am not the best at fixing the … Continue reading Bridges Burned

The "Best You"
There is no such thing as the best you.This is a concept I thought about for a while. I remember all of the times that I prepared myself for something important; a date, a test, a job interview. I remember rehearsing to myself what I would say and what I do. And I can't tell … Continue reading The "Best You"
Power, an alternative definition
I can’t explain how much power that small blue button with white text holds. I couldn’t show you what could happen if you were to hit post. But all I know is what we share creates our future molds. It can decide whether we become that dream job or work at a cafe roast. What … Continue reading Power, an alternative definition
