Am I what people have done to me or what...?
Am I what people have done to me, or what I have managed to save despite what people have done to me? Am I the mosaic of experiences or the ruins of existence? ~Sadia Hakim

My family's love, a distant song...
In the silent halls where echoes fade, I wander lost, in shadows shade, My family's love, a distant song, Unheard, unnoticed, all along. Their eyes like stars, cold and distant, No warmth, no comfort, so persistent, In their embrace, an empty space, A void where love should find its place. Yet still, I yearn for their tender touch, A fleeting hope, I cling to much, But in this realm of darkened hue, My family's love, alas, rings untrue. ~Ambivertsyed
Have the courage to let go...
Please, just have the courage to let go of the people who leave your heart confused. Let go of the people who make you feel like you are compromising all that you desire, and all that you hope for, and all of the goodness and the beauty that you know exists in this world, for a skinny version of love. Let go of falling in love with potential, let go of falling in love with the idea of someone rather than who they truly are. Let go of the fears you have that keep you holding on to something that hurts, something that is so heavy, something that has only left you feeling misunderstood, or unworthy, or at war with yourself. ~Atticuspoetry
No matter how much you're loved, to feel
No matter how much you're loved, to feel loved, you must be seen for who you really are. That's when every ounce of love given is a pound felt. ~Suhaib Rumi
