Duality of self — the energetic exterior vs. the exhausted inner self.

Bleeding Heart

 A heart cracked wide, not to give love, but to let go. Blood seeps like memory— thick, unrelenting, a river of past wounds.

Each drop a story, each stain a scream, a scar raw and open, never meant to heal.

It bleeds in silence, speaking what words cannot— a release, not relief

My creations were shaped by the fears and expectations of those who should have supported me.

Today, I share my first authentic illustration of a painful truth within me: the absence of safety and trust. Even if I can’t fully express it yet, it wouldn’t be fair to bottle up my emotions until my skills catch up.

In a world that constantly pushes me to be faster and better, I choose to protest by slowing down, lowering the bar, and finally breathing — so I can hear in the silence my inner voice.

"I won't harm you!" When all you needed, was someone to warmly welcome you in their arms, unconditionally embracing every part of you — only to find yourself caught in a suffocating trap, convinced that it was always your fault.  You lose your innocence to the darkness, until the day you finally awaken to the dangers that have always surrounded you. You realize you’ve been trying to breathe in waters that were always designed to drown you.  You could never win — because from the very beginning, you were set up to lose yourself in a cruel world where everyone lied about cherishing your well-being. You became bare flesh for their sharp edges, and they blamed you for the mess they've made. You were blamed to be the monster in a sea full of lies. "I won't harm you." Yes you will, and the saddest part, is that I will never receive an apology for it.

“The beauty of the world which is so soon to perish, has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.” - Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own

Inner peace and clarity I will never let this define me but some days it's hard, it gets in the way and destroys all I love, destroys me, but yet , somehow, I keep smiling. #peace #clarity #recovery #strength #lonelyworld #innerstruggle #keepfighting #keepsmiling #neverbackdown #nevergiveup
