A Certain Distance
There was a time when certain things felt permanent. No matter how much you tried to run away from them, they were always there. No matter how much you tried to ignore them, you had to give your full attention to them. They filled your days, stayed in your mind, and you felt them in… Continue reading

The Temptation of Chaos
The day is simply repeating itself over and over. The boredom of repetitive days is depressing me. Slow mornings, familiar routines, and predictable moments. Same people, steady relationships. Nothing different happens that challenges life. So, the urge to return to chaos is getting louder. Distractions start looking tempting. A voice keeps provoking to lose control.… Continue reading

The Weight You Don’t See
Remember, there was a time when your life was scattered into pieces. You fell and fell, and finally hit rock bottom in your life. You stayed there for quite a while and realised that at the end of the day, it’s just you and your scattered life. So, one by one, you started making decisions,… Continue reading

Something Is Missing
Now, everything is fine. Days are moving slowly, as they should. There are no problems that I can’t solve. No chaos, no stress. And still, something doesn’t feel right. A feeling that something is missing. It’s not sadness. It’s not even dissatisfaction. Everything is there, but something is still missing, like a piece missing from… Continue reading

The Cost of Being Nice
You got really tired of being a nice person. It’s such a hectic job to do every day that it feels like labour. Agreeing with people even when you know they are wrong, just because you don’t want to upset them. Choosing silence over conflict so everything stays peaceful. Saying yes when you want to… Continue reading

Quiet Damage
Many years after it happened, one fine day, you will understand how a person can be kind, loving, and generous, yet still be harmful. How “who they were” and “what they did” were so different that it left you confused. Now, you can call them toxic or narcissistic, but were they truly toxic or narcissistic… Continue reading

The Emotion Called Thought
The days keep repeating themselves. The hope that breathes in the morning vanishes somewhere in the dark of the night. Life feels heavy when emotional thoughts start circling inside the mind with no way out. It seems the life that only appears in dreams wants to stay in the dreams. Stubborn life! The mountain of… Continue reading

Feminine Rage
You see her rage, but I see her pain. You ask, “What’s wrong with her?” and I could give you a thousand reasons, but I say, “Nothing,” because it’s not something you can sum up in a few words. It’s not about today. It’s not about yesterday. It’s the weight of years—years filled with pain,… Continue reading

The Safe Place
They don’t call you often. They’re busy, not just with work but with everything else. They have people who need them, tasks that demand their effort, families and responsibilities. Some days, they barely have time to breathe. But when they do come up for air, they call you. You talk for an hour, sometimes more.… Continue reading

You Are Special!
There will always be a difference between you and them, no matter what they do. They might copy your style, chase the same dreams, or try to make you feel like you don’t matter. But they can’t take away what’s yours—your strengths, your abilities, your way of seeing the world. You were made to be… Continue reading

The Fall from Joy
It’s not the sadness that hurts; it’s the shift. That sudden drop from happiness into sadness, the moment when the bubble of illusion bursts, and you hit the ground of reality. Happiness is an illusion. It feels sweet, comforting, and eternal until you try to hold it. Then it slips through your fingers like air.… Continue reading

Vogue World
The outer world feels like a dream, blurry and vague. The vehicles running on the roads, the busy people, and the stubborn buildings all feel unreal. Sometimes I feel unsure about my surroundings, as if I’ll wake up at any moment and everything will disappear in front of my eyes. The sharp gaze of people… Continue reading
