    When Night falls, the World remembers its Balance. PJ Masks Five: The Myth of Balance continues the story of the Heroes we grew up with - now tested by legacy, emotion, and destiny. New Heroes rise beside them: Drake Von Romas (Draco), heir to a secret experiment that sought to forge power through pain; Kiera Delfin (Dolphina), the Seventh Guardianess of the Seas whose empathy can calm storms; and Howard Lucian Kestrel (Technocrat), a mind that seeks to heal what reason once broke.

    Lin Zeyuan has seen emotions his entire life. Not in words. Not in expressions. But in colors. Joy glows gold. Anger burns crimson. Loneliness drifts in pale blue. To him, every human feeling paints the air like an invisible storm. What once seemed like a strange gift slowly became a burden, a world where no emotion can truly be hidden. Now a psychiatrist, Ze Yuan spends his days listening to people whose pain no one else can see. But understanding pain is not the same as healing it. When a patient's death shatters his belief in his own ability, Ze Yuan is forced to confront a truth he has tried to ignore his entire life: Even someone who sees every emotion.... cannot always save the person carrying it. And sometimes the most terrifying moment is not the chaos of color, but the silence that comes when the colors disappear. (@soulbridge). All rights reserved.

    Цей вірш народився на емоціях ще пів року тому. Лише сьогодні я наважилася його відредагувати й відпустити. Обкладинку створила за допомогою ChatGPT, бо не змогла знайти в інтернеті зображення, яке передавало б саме той настрій, який я вкладала у вірш. Чесно кажучи, не один раз ілюстрація перероблялася...

    A Carnival of Small Apocalypses These are poems for the hours after midnight, when the neon hums louder than reason and the world briefly forgets how to pretend. Inside these pages, goldfish learn theology from television screens. Ghosts linger in diners. Prophets miss their exits. Machines dream of salvation. The faithful wrestle with doubt, the doubtful wrestle with faith, and ordinary people carry the quiet weight of living through strange times. Part witness, part confession, part roadside sermon, these free verse spoken-word poems wander through forgotten towns, crowded headlines, broken promises, flickering screens, and the stubborn mysteries that refuse to leave us alone. Some are angry. Some are mournful. Some laugh in places they probably shouldn't. Together they form a carnival of small endings and unexpected beginnings-a collection of voices searching for meaning beneath neon skies, beneath static, beneath the noise. Step right up. The lights are already flickering. The ride has already begun.

    The Unsaid Truth is a collection of poems that invite readers to uncover what lies beneath the surface. Each verse holds a story-of love, silence, injustice, hope, and the emotions we struggle to name. The metaphors conceal as much as they reveal, preserving the mystery of the original thought. These poems were born from feelings not meant solely to be understood, but to be experienced. I began writing at the age of twelve. What started as scattered thoughts became fragments of my soul, offered to those willing to read between the lines... Every week a new poetry to ponder about and reflect.....

    Welcome to Poetry Roughbook. Not every poem begins as a masterpiece, and this one was never meant to be. Poetry Roughbook isn't a collection of perfect poems. Instead, it's a notebook of crossed-out lines, midnight thoughts, coffee stains, and messy drafts where ideas bloom, metaphors wander, and words slowly learn how to breathe. Every poem in these pages is based on prompts shared by Wattpad's Poetry Ambassadors. Each prompt is an invitation to experiment, challenge my creativity, and discover new ways to tell a story through verse. Some poems are polished. Others remain beautifully unfinished. Together, they capture a journey of learning, growing, and finding beauty in imperfection - one prompt, one page, and one poem at a time. This is a place for first attempts, quiet victories, imperfect metaphors, and poems that simply wanted to exist. So, if you don't mind a little mess, a little magic, and a lot of ink... Turn the page. I hope these pages feel a little like home. All poems are original unless stated otherwise. Prompt credits belong to their respective creators.

    A collection of poems about searching. For truth. For meaning. For home. For love. For people. For myself. Some questions remain unanswered. Perhaps they always will. And maybe... Maybe it's okay.

    When the Heart Chose At twenty-five, Nandini Singh has her life exactly the way she likes it. An SBI Probationary Officer with a stable career, a love for good food, music, and quiet independence, marriage is the last thing on her mind. Standing at just 5'4", with long golden-brown hair, striking features, and a personality that swings between adorably childish and unexpectedly composed, she's convinced that arranged marriages are nothing more than awkward interviews disguised as family gatherings. So when her parents announce they've found a suitable match, Nandini decides on a simple plan- Scare the groom away. But plans have a funny way of falling apart. Especially when the groom turns out to be Arjun Thakur. Twenty-seven years old, 5'11", calm, mature beyond his years, and a respected police officer, Arjun isn't searching for fairy tales or grand romance. He believes that love isn't found in dramatic confessions, but in trust, respect, quiet companionship, and choosing the same person every single day. Neither of them walks into their first meeting expecting to fall in love. Yet a conversation meant to last fifteen minutes stretches into hours. Phone calls become something they both secretly look forward to. A café date filled with teasing, shared desserts, and unexpected moments begins to blur the line between an arranged match and something entirely their own. As friendship slowly blossoms into love, Nandini discovers that perhaps marriage isn't about losing her freedom after all. Perhaps... It's about finding someone who makes the journey home feel a little shorter. A heartwarming slow-burn romance about laughter, patience, family, shared meals, and two people who never went looking for love-only to find it quietly waiting for them. Sometimes, the most beautiful love stories don't begin with "I love you." They begin with, "I'm glad you made it safely."

    Lyra has spent years walking roads that belong to no one. She owns little more than the bow on her back, the pack over her shoulder, and the survival skills that have kept her alive since childhood. She trusts no one, stays nowhere for long, and leaves before anyone has the chance to become important. Winter, however, has different plans. As the first snowfall traps her in a remote northern village, Lyra is forced to accept shelter she never wanted and remain among strangers she never intended to know. But the longer she stays, the more she begins to notice that something isn't right. People whisper when they think she isn't listening. Old symbols carved into the surrounding forest seem strangely familiar. And every trail she follows leads her toward questions no one is willing to answer. Some secrets are buried beneath snow. Others have been waiting for her all along. Notice something? No mention of Bellamy. No mention of romance. No mention of mates. No mention of magic. Readers discover those things.

    Czasem trudno być szklakiem. Szczególnie wtedy, gdy świat naokoło zdaje się pękać jak stare lustro. Jak jednak przestać wierzyć, że wszystko da się jeszcze naprawić? Że będzie lepiej? Nyx widziała morderstwo. Była tego pewna. Krew lała się po bruku, a ona nie mogła się ruszyć. Kto więc jak nie ona miał znaleźć tego, kogo bali się nawet rządzący? Kto miał odkupić swoje winy i wreszcie pokazać wszystkim, na co go stać? Nie zasługiwała przecież na życie w slumsach! Była kimś wyjątkowym. Kimś... kto zaczął słyszeć głos Bogini. Meg z kolei wie, że choć magowie nie powinni istnieć, ona była jednym z nich. Co mogła zrobić, by pomóc swojej przyjaciółce, która powoli pogrążała się w obsesyjnym poszukiwaniu kogoś, kto przecież mógł ją zabić? I czy uda jej się zachować sekret przed szklakami z wyższych sfer, tak bardzo zainteresowanych jedyną ocalałą ze spotkania z mglistym mordercą?

    Agape in the Architecture of Dust is a Christian epic poem that follows the extraordinary journey of Aremu, a humble young man called to seek Agape-the highest form of selfless, divine love. Through trials, sacrifice, compassion, and unwavering faith, he confronts the forces of pride, greed, and selfishness, discovering that true greatness is built not on power or wealth but on mercy and service. Rich with biblical symbolism and vivid imagery, the poem explores redemption, hope, and the enduring truth that while earthly kingdoms return to dust, Agape remains the eternal foundation upon which lasting legacies are built.

    Some people disappear all at once. Others vanish one unnoticed piece at a time. Adrian's life was painfully ordinary until the morning he realised something impossible had gone missing. No one else seemed to notice. No one else seemed to care. As the days pass, reality begins to fracture. Mirrors hesitate. Strangers forget his face. The city grows colder, quieter, and disturbingly indifferent. Then he meets a girl who carries a secret as impossible as his own, and together they begin to uncover a truth buried beneath the routines of modern life. In a world where loneliness is normal, silence is mistaken for strength, and people slowly become invisible long before they die, how do you prove you ever existed? A haunting tale of identity, isolation, and the quiet cruelty of society, Umbra explores what remains of a person when the world stops seeing them. Some mysteries are meant to be solved. Others simply wait for the next person to disappear.
