I am tough…
but I am not made of stone.
I’ve been hurt,
I’ve stayed silent,
I’ve fallen and stood up again.
If I’ve become strong,
it’s not from being heartless,
it’s from learning.

Because our patience was long,
they thought we felt nothing.
They mistook silence for emptiness,
endurance for indifference.
But just because we didn’t react loudly
doesn’t mean it didn’t hurt deeply.

Poison…
is not always in a cup.
Sometimes it lives in a word
spoken softly.
In a smile
with bitter intentions.
Poison doesn’t always kill,
sometimes it slowly
changes you.

Being away from you is a pain…
But not just for the heart;
To understand the meaning of distance.
Sometimes distance is not kilometers,
Sometimes it is a decision that was not made,
Or a sentence that was never said.
Being away from you is a pain
Because it forces a person
To return to himself,
To the voids that were filled by the presence of another.
And there you understand
How the absence of someone
Can make a person deeper,
Not weaker.
Maybe the philosophy of this pain
is this;
To learn
that loving
does not always mean having,
And distance
is sometimes another form of awareness…

Refusing to give up on one's own dreams and desires is not selfishness, but a result of self-respect and psychological maturity.
A healthy individual does not suspend their self-worth while existing within relationships. Suppressing one's own goals, desires, or identity in order to conform to the expectations of others, while seemingly maintaining the relationship in the short term, leads to loss of self, burnout, and internal conflict in the long term.

Life isn’t something you chase , it’s something you notice.
In the warmth of the morning sun, in laughter that comes without reason, in moments that don’t need to be perfect to feel right.
It’s fragile, chaotic, and endlessly beautiful , and maybe that’s what makes it worth living.

What if…
one day
everything is simpler than our fears?
What if
instead of fighting,
we finally
learn to breathe together?
