-Imnarenla Aier I I am constantly trying to communicate something incommunicable, to explain something inexplicable, to tell about something I only feel in my bones and which can only be experienced in those bones. II Nothing is a coincidence, every soul you meet is written in your destiny — to teach you, to heal…

-Vebühlü Tetseo Is there a place that I could live in? Why is the place I once called home becoming hell? People, people, and people. Lies, deception, and corruption. Scary, isn’t it? Slowly, it is becoming our graveyard. We are alive and breathing just fine, but are we really living? Lost souls, or just…

-Justin Metha The nightingale sang that night, but a sorrowful song.The black flag flew overhead as mourning dawned.The cold bitter, the night long.Tears fell as hearts wept forlorn.

– Eliza Venuh We’re stuck in this endless cycle of almosts, forever teetering between something and nothing. In the dead of night, 2am, your thoughts envelop me, and I’m lost in the vast expanse, searching for a glimpse of you. All I crave is your comfort, your reassurance. Console me, and I’ll vanish into…

– Eliza Venuh I could fill a thousand pages with words about you, yet still fall short of capturing the essence. Like stars eclipsed by the moon’s brilliance, language fails me. Every letter, a mere shadow of my true feelings; every sentence, an echo of the emotions you evoke. I’d fill each page with…

– Eliza Venuh The bird and the fish may indeed fall in love, But where shall they live? In skies of blue, the bird would soar, While in the depths, the fish would explore. Their worlds apart, yet hearts entwined, In love’s sweet bond, their souls aligned. But where to build their nest, their…

Joy “Submitted”- The computer screen smiled, illuminating. Fear Hotel room- moonless night corridor of uncertainty…
