What I Thought Was Heartbreak

Every day felt exactly the same. She woke up to the same place, same routine, same silence, and the same heavy emptiness that never seemed to go away. Drifting through life with no one to notice her, she carried her loneliness and sadness like a permanent weight on her chest-convinced she was destined to feel this hollow forever.
Until she met someone who finally made her feel seen.
For the first time, everything changed. She fell in love, and craved every bit of attention, every word, every moment that person gave her-kasi ito lang ang nagparamdam sa kanya na may halaga siya. She gave everything: her heart, her time, her trust, thinking she finally found what she had been searching for.
But what started as her only source of light slowly turned into her biggest regret.
She began to feel used-or at least, that was what she told herself. She poured all her love and longing just to be loved back, only to end up more broken than before. Now, she's back where she started-alone and empty again. But this time, the pain is deeper. Because now, she knows exactly what it feels like to be happy... and how much it hurts when the person who made you feel alive is also the one who leaves you with nothing but regret.
