Love Yourself, Too.

She held pen to paper, staring blankly at a white sheet that had nothing, but somehow held everything. All the whispers she heard in her head were now appearing as words on a canvas screaming back at her. She was forced to face her feelings and emotions. Spending months convincing her heart that there is

Eyes Closed

The need for serenity slithered through her veins as the ocean crashed against her skin. She closed her eyes and envisioned the sun reflecting against the water, a twinkle in her eye was awoken and a melody in her heart began to play. Every time she opened her eyes, she was brought back to darkness,

Flowers Bloom

Wake me up when the grass is green and the sky is cloudless. When all your grudges are no longer held and all you see are the colours of happiness and tranquility. To live in a world and ask for it to be perfect is something seen as unquestionable, laughable really. Notice that the flowers

How Do You Apologize to Your Heart?

The storm had made a home for itself within her. The wind was strong enough to send her tumbling over, the pressure so powerful, it forced her to find comfort on the ground. Suddenly things from where she used to stand seemed unobtainable, too far and too tall for her to reach. The skies were

Like suddenly, the world around me no longer exists and all I have ever known was your soul next to mine. As struck as the very first moment I fell in love with you, my heart will never know a love so divine. -K.K.
