There are days
when I smile
like everything is fine,
and no one notices
...
I was cursed before I even understood what love meant.
A demon marked me when I was only a child,
whispering that no heart would ever belong to me
...
Happy Birthday to Me
There was no cake,
no candles slowly melting
...
🥀
They came like candles in the rain, soft voices calling out my name. I thought their hearts would stay the same, yet all they left behind was pain.
They wore their kindness like a veil, a ghostly ship with rotten sail. When storms arrived, their vows grew pale, and every promise seemed to fail.
...
The noose of contempt grew tight, without a corner to hide the fear. Family, love, and friends: the suspicion that courage doesn't exist in this world. Despair shattered the mirror. There were no tears left, no reflection, not even a damned door to life. In the atrocious silence of the fall, the soul tore itself apart, without a lament, leaving only a cold, hollow body floating forever in oblivion, where nothingness devoured its echo.

They say feeling is a gift,
but no one speaks of its weight.
Of noise that travels through the bones,

Now everything is Al, that's the way things seem to fly.
...
I no longer remember how old I am,
or how many winters have passed me by.
Years touch every face around me,
yet somehow they never touch mine.
...
Today I feel fragile,
and silence weighs more than before.
The hours move slowly around me,
like ghosts dragging chains across an empty floor.
...
We are surrounded by people…
and yet more and more souls fall asleep feeling invisible,
like ghosts wandering through brightly lit rooms where nobody truly looks at each other anymore.
