Knives are sharp but words are sharper.
Poison is bad but words are the worst.
In your presence I found comfort.
But in your absence I'm suffering immensely.
...

'You won't understand it until it happens to u.' These words are ringing on my head.
I've tried, God knows, I've tried!
Thought I was knocking on your door but I was hitting on a brick wall.
Caring about someone drains u and dries u out.
...

I Close them and then Open them.
My eyes when closed see everything clearly.
When opened everything seems blurry, Everything makes no sense.
The things I see no wonder my eyes are aching.
...

Different routes lead to different destinations.
Careful planning doesn't guarantee everything will go according to plan.
Running away from who you are will not answer your questions but will create new questions instead.
Windy days will blow everything away, but they will never blow you away!
...

Soaking in your love.
Bathing in your kindness.
Swimming in your grace.
I am drowning in life.
...

Love is Old, very ancient.
Love existed way before time was even born.
Sometimes it's boring and very dull, It depends on how u look at it.
Love is tall, love is short.
...

Restricted.
Stuck in one place.
Closed box with me in it.
No moves to makes.
...

If you've never seen me sad.
sorrow written all over my face.
never call yourself a friend.
if you've never tried to put a smile
...

Being strong means, to keep your act together while u are dying inside.
To tighten the lid so that u don't let your feelings show.
Being strong means laughing so hard so that you get to forget how you feel deep down inside.
I am strong and being strong is the only choice i have.
...

I've been to the edge of the cliff.
I have seen what demons do to you when you refuse to be submissive to their clamorous demands.
I have witnessed dysfunctional people functioning in a dysfunctional system.
I have seen broken people who were so eager to mend the world.
