"the battles we don't talk about", is a small project of mine, a journey into the quiet struggles of our lives, that shape who we are.
I actually don't really know much about poetry, but I just wrote this from my heart, taking a small leap into healing.
I hope this finds you when you need it the most.
to the reader behind the screen, if the weight feels too heavy, if you're spiraling, if everything feels endless, just know that you are not alone.
even if your fights are silent, and your pain goes unseen, you are not alone.
I'm writing this in hope it will help someone embrace that wolf in our minds.
love,

She only meant to help her best friend escape a blind date.
He only meant to punish the woman who ruined his family.
Neither of them expected love to be the cruelest lie of all.
Dr. Mira Das had always been the quiet one - brown-skinned, soft around the edges, a middle-class girl with more kindness than confidence.
When she fell for Arav Malhotra, the cold, self-made CEO who saw the world through power and precision, she thought she'd finally been chosen for who she truly was.
But love built on secrets never lasts.
The night she confessed her feelings - he confessed his revenge.
She left him that night with tears in her eyes and a heartbeat growing beneath her own.
Four years later, she's no longer the fragile girl he broke - she's a doctor known for her calm, her courage, and her silence.
When she's assigned to treat an elderly man in a powerful family's mansion, she accepts - unaware that fate is leading her straight back to the ghost of her past.
She doesn't know she's stepped into the home she once dreamed of building with him.
And between them stands a truth neither of them is ready to face - a four-year-old boy with Arav's eyes and Mira's heart.
"The Weight of My Heart" is a story of love born from lies, hearts stitched together by time, and the kind of forgiveness that hurts more than hate ever could.
Because sometimes, the person who broke you is the only one who can put you back together - if fate gives them a second chance.
