Blue Wound
You left my wound to fester, neglecting it for so long. Then, when you needed me again, you expected my return. Don't you think you owe me?

I Was Thinking, I Am Not Well ! I Was Thinking, The "Boogie Man" Will Need My Name - But I Am Thinking
So when I was growing up, I learnt that clothes and shoes wasn't important!? When I was growing up, I learnt that outside was just as cold as the inside, and to have someone care enough was a hard thing to do !? I'm thinking, that having a person just say "I Love YOU" - means it, and thinks of themselves as extra - ordinary !? A thing high above the heavens and also beneath the Earth !? A place where it wouldn't start but end, a place where nothing can surpass - and nothing can over flow !? So when I was growing up, I learnt that clothes and shoes wasn't important!? But, I learnt !!! I'm thinking, that having a person just say "I Love YOU" - means it, and thinks of themselves as extra - ordinary... I'm thinking !!!

The Day I Stopped Avoiding the Mirror
That autumn was the first time I truly stood still in front of the mirror. Not the quick glance while brushing my teeth, not the distracted look before rushing out the door. I mean standing under the bathroom light, staring at my hairline as if it were trying to tell me something. The corners had receded—just a little. Maybe no one else would notice. But I did. It felt like watching the tide pull back, exposing more shoreline than yesterday.

Morning Inspiration.. AI-Generated.
The Morning the River Spoke Elias pulled the collar of his worn coat tighter around his neck and stepped out onto the back porch. The cold hit him immediately, a sharp, clean shock to the system that was far preferable to the stale heat of the small cabin he was renovating. He was a city planner from Boston, a man whose life was measured in square footage, zoning laws, and deadlines. He had come to this remote corner of the state for solitude, to escape the noise, but so far, he had only succeeded in bringing the noise with him. His mind was still a jumble of emails, permits, and the lingering sting of a project that had just fallen through.

I've Had A "Boy-friend" - And Guess What, He Likes A "Particular" Thinking - He Said We Have To Listen Music
The best lesson I will ever learn, is that life is filled with many obstacles !? Life is filled with many problems, and the hope is just to find the one person who understands who you are !? I've had 10 - billion partners - not really, but that's what I hoped for !! I hoped, that I was "that attractive", and you know well, Valentine's is important !? I didn't receive any chocolates, no dinner dates - not even the favourite nursery rhyme for back in 24 years ago !? But, anyway - enough about me !! I would just like to say !! The best lesson I will ever learn, is that life is filled with many obstacles !?
