Slow Knife

In the shadow of shared laughter,
there used to be a yellow flower, 
but lines were blurred, boundaries crossed, 
trust was shattered, a bond lost.

Each betrayal, a wound so deep, 
Yet still, memories haunt my sleep. 
closest one's hurt the most they say,
and you my little one have proved it again.

A slow knife cuts the deepest they say,
never thought I too would get it one day.
Your lies were always so so good, 
know you are the reason it's come to an end.

And all that peace & harmony, I built for years,
 Is gone now and left me in tears
I fought, I tried, but had to part.
A heavy weight upon my heart. 

We're family and nothing can change that,
But we'll never be friends, and that's a fact.

Do you walk your path alone?
Or find solace in a home unknown? 
I wonder often, in the silent night,
If you've found your own guiding light.

Though scars remain, aching yet,
 I wish you peace, without regret.
For in the echo of what we once had, 
I pray you find the peace I never had.

The beauty of anime

In my previous article regarding anime, I provided a concise overview of the medium. This current piece is intended for individuals who have immersed themselves in anime culture and are at a point where they can truly begin to recognize and admire the beauty that this medium offers. Have you ever experienced a personal connection to something in an anime? It could be a whole show, a character, a scene, or even just a single line. Anime and movies have the power to bring out emotions that we may not know how to process. There are moments when we're not just watching someone else's story on screen, we're living it. We feel a personal connection to something intangible that we're watching. Anime is more than just entertainment. It has the ability to connect with us on an unspoken level that no person has ever done before. It's rare to see something that's so intimate and familiar yet tackles ...

Skyrim Was Winter, And I Was Just Waking Up

Lately, I’ve been thinking about silence. Not just the regular kind, the absence of noise, but the kind that settles inside you. The kind that creeps in when you’re alone at night, lying on your bed, phone facedown, and you just feel this weird stillness all around you. The kind of silence that makes you reflect on everything, or nothing, all at once. For me, this silence is oddly similar to something I’ve felt before in a game. It’s weird, I know. But it always takes me back to Skyrim. More specifically, to that cart ride. I’ve played a lot of games. I’ve tried escaping into open worlds, storylines, and choices I don’t always have in real life. But Skyrim ? Skyrim stayed with me. I think about that opening scene more than I probably should. You know, the one where you’re bound, gagged, nameless, and just watching the world pass by as you’re taken to your execution. That cart ride doesn’t just introduce you to the game; it mirrors real life in ways I wasn’t expecting. Yo...

When Serendipity Knocked

Sometimes, life surprises you in the most unexpected ways. It throws a name, a moment, or a person into your path that changes everything. For me, that moment came when I met her tiny, bold, with short hair framing a face that held more strength and beauty than I thought possible. She’s the kind of person you don’t forget. Fierce yet kind, strong yet tender, she carries herself with a quiet grace that draws you in. Every conversation with her feels like uncovering a new layer of the world. She challenges me, grounds me, and somehow, without even trying, makes me want to be the best version of myself. What amazes me most is how effortlessly she understands me. In a world where connection often feels fleeting or shallow, she gets me in a way no one else has. It's not just the big things; it's the little things, the way she listens, the way she shares her thoughts, the way she's unapologetically herself. Meeting her wasn't just a moment; it was a turning point. She brought...
