letter to be sent Published: September 26, 2025
I fold the silence into paper, address it to your absence, and let the ink wander where my voice could not. Every word is a bridge half built across distance, collapsing into the river before you ever arrive. .

glimpse of you Published: July 30, 2025
I hate it when my tears blurs out my vision, when I am trying to capture the most incredible view. The view that's gonna be winding to my heart and mind forever.

No matter how much I try to despair the fact that I love you, it's gonna come again and again to me and knock on the door of my heart saying, "you are stuck forever and there's no elude...."

His arms are safe, his heart spacious, A universe of love he holds inside.

Your heart is suspended, entangled in the threads of destiny. You are a complete, colorful intoxication but every intoxication is bound by helplessness. In the vast sky, when you show the drops of your colors You play with the wind and the earth’s sweet soil. When the soil of existence is stirred, I become lost in a state of madness For you are the throne of Adam’s fate, a portrait, A vibrant intoxication tied to the threads of destiny. At times, like your fragrance, I too drift in the air, abandoning my earthly existence, I plead for a prayer,
