"Alythra" is a poem about a girl who appears ordinary to the world but quietly carries invisible storms within her. Through metaphors of echoes, flickers, and hidden aches, the poem reveals her resilience - how she continues her duties, offers kindness, and walks with humility despite the weight of pain and endless medication. It is not a story of defeat, but of endurance: a reminder that the hardest paths are often given to the strongest souls, and that even hidden battles can be carried with grace.

WHEN THE RAIN FORGOT TO FALL
I wrote this because I needed to survive it. Because there are some feelings too big for silence. Some heartbreaks too heavy to carry alone. This isn't fiction. This is my heart, broken open and rearranged into verse. "I saw you standing where the sidewalk curves, and suddenly my chest knew different words." - That's how it started. A glance. A stranger. A feeling I couldn't ignore. "You said we needed to talk. Those five words, I knew. I already knew." - And that's how it ended. Not with fire. With silence. I won't tell you that time heals all wounds. I won't say everything happens for a reason. I won't pretend heartbreak makes you stronger. But I will show you that: You can survive what you think will destroy you. You can break and still become beautiful. You can love someone and lose them and still be whole. You can be your own happy ending. I wrote these poems with tears on my face. I wrote them on good days when I forgot to hurt. Every word is something I actually felt. Every line is a moment I actually lived. "You are not broken. You are breaking open. And that's where the light gets in." - That's what this taught me. That's what I hope it gives you, the comfort of knowing you're not alone.Complete

The light they see in me; the darkness i hide within
In every family, there is a rhythm - laughter at the dinner table, warmth in small gestures, the comfort of being surrounded by love. For the youngest child, this rhythm is both a blessing and a quiet burden. To the world, they are the bright spark: the one who smiles first, who laughs easily, who carries light into every corner of their home and school. Their friends call them cheerful, dependable, a presence that makes every moment feel lighter. Their family treasures their warmth, believing that they are always at peace. But behind the smile lies a truth no one sees. Each day is a careful performance, a balance between the joy they give others and the heaviness that lingers within. In the quiet hours of the night, when the world is still, their heart whispers questions they can never voice. Questions about worth, about exhaustion, about the battle they face in silence. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘚𝘦𝘦, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘴 𝘐 𝘏𝘰𝘭𝘥 is a tender, haunting exploration of what it means to protect the ones you love by hiding your pain. It is the story of a child who carries two lives - one that shines brightly for others, and another that silently fights to endure. Through ordinary days at school, gentle family dinners, and lonely nights under the ceiling's watch, the youngest child learns what it means to exist in two worlds at once: the one everyone sees, and the one only they can feel. This is not a story of villains or cruelty. It is a story of love, of warmth, of family - and the unspoken truth that even within the most loving homes, battles can remain unseen. It is about the quiet courage of a child who chooses to smile, even as their heart longs for rest. A poxignant journey of hidden emotions, fragile strength, and the longing for someone to notice what lies beneath the surface - this story reminds us that sometimes, the brightest light hides the deepest shadow. /~~/~~/~~/~~/~~/~~/~~/~~/ T

Resilience
I never planned on telling my story. Truth is, I've spent most of my life holding it in, swallowing the pain, laughing off the shade, putting on a mask when deep down I was fighting battles no one could see. But the older I got, the more I realized silence can eat you alive. And if I don't tell it raw and unfiltered, then who will? This book isn't polished for perfection. It's not sugarcoated, it's not dressed up to make anyone comfortable. It's me, The struggles, the lessons, the laughter, the embarrassing moments, the heartbreaks, the love, the shady comebacks, the nights I thought I wouldn't make it, and the mornings I woke up ready to fight again. I named this book Resilience because that's exactly what my life has been about. No matter how many times I was knocked down by people I loved, by family pressure, by toxic love, by my own mistakes, I got back up. Bruised, maybe. Bitter, sometimes. But never broken. So if you're holding this book, know this is, you're not reading some perfect fairytale. You're stepping into my world. One filled with chaos, comedy, culture, love, and pain that shaped me into the person I am today. And maybe, just maybe, you'll find pieces of yourself in these pages too. This is my story. Raw. Real. Resilient.
