I didn’t delete any chapter of this story — I only removed the ones that were never truly updates to begin with. And honestly, you don’t know me… you don’t know anything about my journey. But today, I feel like sharing something important.

Today was my last day of college. I stood there quietly, watching everyone else clicking pictures with their friends, laughing, and capturing memories. And there I was — standing alone on the side, unnoticed. But I didn’t let it show on my face. I smiled. I acted like it didn’t bother me. Because once again, I became the strongest girl in the room.

But deep down, I keep asking myself… am I really that hard to love? Why does it feel like no one ever truly sees me? No one chooses me. No one recognizes the softness I carry beneath all this strength. I hate that voice inside me — that silent whisper — always telling me that I am not enough, always saying "no" to me even before life gives me a chance.
And lastly… somewhere along the way, I became the shadow. Unseen. Unheard. Unloved.
But the truth is — I never wanted to be the shadow. I wanted to be loved, to be listened to, to be adored. I wanted to be someone's person, someone's favorite, someone's safe place. But again… this small child inside me stands there, wounded — longing for love, but only finding silence.
