The desperation to run looms large in the quiet desperation of shattered expectations.
Despite the ruin one has brought upon themselves, the yearning for an embrace persists, even when it seems elusive.
A silent struggle unfolds—crying in the shadows, wrestling with nightmares, and battling unseen demons.
Then, amidst the darkness, a figure emerges who could dispel those demons.
Noor, a beacon of light, becomes a potential guide to a shared future.
Yet, the fear of inadequacy takes hold, driving a retreat from the chance at shared happiness.
The belief that the pure soul deserves better becomes the haunting refrain, compelling a painful escape from what could be.
