It's more glaring when you're a blend of both. Sometimes I feel like Peter Pan among a bunch of Janes(Wendy's cynical daughter). When we were adults, my sister once said in a huff "Why do you get to have all the fun?!". Please don't say anything negative about her or that it's weird? I think I understand. When we were kids, she dreamed of a nuclear family, responsibilities and a job in the medical field. My dreams were smaller(I've had moderate depression since childhood plus come from a culture where you don't go for help mentally). I wanted to have more happy moments then sad, be surrounded by kind/caring people and to laugh at least once every day. We both got our dreams - for the most part. Except? We don't have much in common now and sometimes I think her adult roles of collegue, mother and wife wear her out sometimes. Our relationship hasn't gotten any better and in some ways she seem to resent me for not marrying, having kids, staying in one career for a lifetime and doing pretty much what I want to do in life. Me? I'm sticking to the promise I made to myself when I was a kid. I think that promise might have saved my life and I ,gratefully, thank that little girl in me for not burging on the self healing and moderation that I needed. I can't control her feelings but I can do it for me. I will continue to connect with her but I make myself happy first. (edited)

A game or Not?
🌹 Can I trust your plan for us? Whispers of promises, fragile as dust, How do I know this plan is real, Not just a fleeting thought you conceal? How do you know it’s more than a dream? A script that fades like a shallow stream. Three months pass, six more unfold, A year, and still, the story... read more

Whispers of a Divide
No word is spoken, yet I know the quiet truth that we both sow— a longing caught between the veil, where love can’t die but cannot sail. Our roots run deep in soil unknown, though both seek light, though both have grown. We share the air, the stars, the dawn, but still the thread... read more

Don't stir the embers, of a heart it's already aflame If love is what you offer, give it truly, don't play games Don't do me a favor, with a love that's incomplete If you want to love me, do it with a heart that's unique

“Desires as one” a short poem by me
Slowly on the rising, your mouth is full of words. Yet this heart is open, empty and waiting for your words. You take my peak of destruction and turn it into a masterpiece only you can desire. Only knowing your worth and time, makes me know the strongest we can become as one.

Darkest moon day!
I was on the train, looking through my window, The wind was stroking my hair, like a mother caring for her child. Lights! Yes, lights were tapping my shoulders with love. My eyes drifted toward the sky as I savored the journey. At the edge of my vision, I noticed—it was a dark moon day. And then... read more

Why would anyone wait, or waste their precious time? Are we special to anyone, or just a fleeting rhyme? Do we leave a lasting mark, or are we easily forgot? The questions haunt, as I wonder, what am I worth?

We search for solace, in another's gentle hand, For wounds that we cannot heal, on our own broken land We yearn for someone's love, to mend our shattered past, To heal the hurts that we cannot, and make our hearts whole at last
