A good relationship
is not loud like thunder
it is the quiet rain
that stays.
It is choosing each other
on ordinary days,
when there are no fireworks,
no grand moments—
just two souls
sitting side by side,
feeling enough.
It is laughter that lingers,
after the joke is over,
and silence that feels warm,
not empty.
It is holding on
without holding back,
being seen in your mess
and still being called home.
Not perfect,
not always easy—
but real,
steady,
and soft in all the right places.
A good relationship
is not about finding someone flawless,
it’s about finding someone
who makes even your broken pieces
feel beautifully whole.
from my journal, may 3rd 2023
Home
Where is your home? They ask
I just stare into their eyes and back to the ground
What could I say?
All that's left of it is rumbles and scars
They destroyed it in front of me
And I couldn't do anything
They were powerful
I, helpless
So they destroyed the only place I'd known
I watched as I saw my entire city burn
Weeping children, raped dead bodies
Lost family, dreams, hopes, aspirations
I escaped from there
Not everyone could
I saw many die and
Part of me died with them
So here I am a walking skeleton
Existence at question
Asked about my home that's gone
All that's left of it is rumbles, scars and memories of time that would never return
Where is my home they ask
But what do I answer
My home isn't home anymore
Where do I belong?

My writing about her in an art,
And together they make poetry."
