I always dream small because I donโt think I am capable of dreaming big. I always shut down myself when I think of all the possibilities because I donโt want to be disappointed. Untilโyou came. You were able to show me how to dreamโbig enough for me to be excited about what lies ahead. You …
This is why we canโt be togetherโฆ I know what I want;while youโre still figuring things out It is not just the meeting of the eyes;but I want a meeting of minds. Itโs not just conversationsbut a deeper kind of connection;the one that transcends beyond words and silences. I donโt want to play safe or …
Whoโs braver? The one who leaves or the one who stays? Every day, I always ask that myself. Am I brave because I was the one who left? Or I could have been braver if I stayed, instead. But when will you draw the line between wanting to leave or wanting to stay? Am I …
Youโve done more than enough. If you think otherwise, then remember how you work hard, day and night, just to provide what they need. Remember how youโve bent your rules at times just so you can accommodate their happiness. Remember those sleepless nights, the prayer youโve silently utteredโpleading heaven to spare them from pain. Remember …
DID WE MAKE IT?I wish I had the affirmative answer to thatโbut unfortunately, we didnโt. Did I regret meeting you?No. I would never regret an experience that once made me who I am today. I always believe that we meet people at a time when we need them the most. And I guess the universe …

You will remember every failure, heartache, and tearsโeven the sleepless nights you spent trying your best to understand and accept the inevitable.

I found the words to sayโฆ In every broken penthat bleeds and leaves a mark. In a broken clockthat reminded meโitโs okay to stop. In a broken mirrorthat still reflects the beautyof a broken soul. I found the words to sayโin the countless times you lied,in saying your sorry hundred of timesthat it became now …
