Sea of Strangers

Take Back Your Power Greet the world with no expectation. Love as though you have never been hurt or betrayed. Let go of the ones who take so much from you yet offer nothing in return. This is how you take back your power.

Anything for Love Fear isn't a reason when it come to love—it's an excuse. Anyone who has ever been in love will tell you that. When it happens, you don't think about the consequences. You'd turn your life upside down to be with that person. You'd do anything for them.

For Yours You were the one who taught her strength and humility in equal parts. You were the one who lifted her up, brought her down to her knees. And now here she is, the girl who has never had to ask for anyone's love, asking for yours.s

Somehow, there is a sense of comfort in knowing nothing will ever hit me quite as hard again. Nothing will ever be as beautiful, but neither will anything hurt as much.

Writing There is one thing you should know about writing. It will inevitably lead you to dark places as you cannot write authentically about something unless you have lived it. However, you should always bear in mind that you are only a tourist and must always remain one. You were blessed with the gift of words, in order to bring a voice to suffering. But do not be too indulgent despite how addictive sadness can be, how easy it is to get lost down the path of self-destruction. You must emerge from adversity, scathed but victorious to tell your story, and, in turn, light the way for others.

Meant to Be If they were meant to be in your life, nothing cover ever make them leave. If they weren't, nothing in the world could make them stay.

My Life I will celebrate this life of mine, with or without you. The moon does not need the sun to tell her she is already whole.

Where It Hurts There are days when the melancholy settles on you like a sudden change in weather. The kind of sadness that is intangible. Like the presence of an ache where you can't pinpoint exactly where it hurts, you just know it does.

From Everyone When you don't have the whole attention of someone, you find yourself begging for it from everyone.

Thoughts on Letting Go It's possible to move on from someone even if your heart refuses to let go. And it's not something you need to consciously do. It will just happen gradually over time. The ache will always be there, but the intensity will fade, and you'll find other beautiful things to fill your days with.

More to Me What never was, What could have been, was more to me than anything else.

No Longer Mine It should be my right to mourn someone who has yet to leave this world but no longer wants to be part of mine.

love is a dormant volcano, lying in wait, biding its time.

Please take your time and take it slowly; as all you do will run its course. And nothing else can take what only— was always meant as solely yours.

It is the mark of a great poet to write words that feel as though they have stood witness to your most intimate memory of love.
