The promise

6 December 2024

I know that one day I will collapse,
And hopefully, you won’t witness it.

I’ll stay strong and keep us stronger.

That’s the promise I made—to hold you
Forever.

It's you

you could ever wish for.
You are the light that guides you
through the darkest nights.
You are the Santa
you’ve always dreamed of.
You are the Christmas
you’ve been waiting for.

Writing

I think I can write about myself, the thoughts in my head, or the things around me.

So, I am writing here to feel alive.
