"We are poetically beautiful,
even we're vulnerable and broken."
This book contains of english poems and prose I've written for the past years until to this date. Some are short and some are quite long. I hope you enjoy reading my pieces!

wasn’t it too absurd that you left me uprooted and yet i still wish you will remember my name without stuttering. didn’t i tell you, that you were like sunshine and rainbows, pleasing and beautiful; but you were also like winter, sending chills to my 𝘴 𝘱 𝘪 𝘯 𝘦 .
how could you be so radiantly warm and cold at the same time?
you taught me how to greet cold mornings with bitterness in my mouth, the wounds and scrapes weren’t even healing. i envy the clouds, for they can pour everything out with a falling rain and yet here i am, i thought i’d grown tired from skipping meals and hanging my stray hair on the shower walls. i thought i’d grown tired of letting myself get drunk and collapse on the dance floor. i thought i’d grown tired from sobbing myself to sleep or skipping your favorite song, but i never thought the pain you caused was too unbearable that it keeps on bottling up in my chest and stomach.
how ironic we can say to other people the word g o o d b y e, but when it comes to you, i don't know how to say it anymore.
i bet it will sound strange if i utter that word without trembling or the feeling of urge to hate, because i still ponder every minute why we drifted apart and wake up as strangers again.
i’m not saying i didn’t cry, but in-between i laugh— i realized how silly it is to take anything too seriously.
perhaps, because i'm scared. i always feel scared. so, when it comes to letting go, it’s always the other person who cuts the rope while i remain holding whatever remains of it. and it’s so sad that i’m always the one who end up feeling this.
i wonder, if i ever cross into your mind even for a minute.
