Beach Prints
I see beautiful tragedies of life in the footprints prints on the beach , do you?
i sat down on the sea shore
as a visitor
only to find myself in an ocean of footprints
A sign of visitors
that walk over
pass by the beach
i looked down on my body
only to find myself drowned in those footprints
a sign of visitors
that once walked with me
now pass by me
these scars are just footprints then.
what do I think of them?
which ones i treasure
which ones i mourn
whatever I think of them,
they will remain on me , as a sign.
a sign of visitors
and just like that,
i found the proof of
every tear
every laughter
every time I felt sick of someone
every time I felt homesick for someone
i saw the tides gently wipe away some of these footprints while leaving the most
only to make space for more visitors to come
the visitors leave , their footprints stay
until another visitor walks over them
to create a new trail of these prints
they don't reach far beneath surface
but they are the decorations of sand
what do they teach me?
something beautiful
something tragic
i see the beautiful tragedies of life in the footprints on beach , do you?
thankyouuuuu 🩷🩷🫂🫂

[read the previous poems for context ly]
Letters from Juliet (IV)
I woke up today and realised
that it isn't about your name not being there on my lips
it's not about the roses not smelling like you
or the coffee not reminding me of us
or me not being afraid of thunder anymore
It's the fact that I wish it wasn't this way
I , deeply, desperately, delusionally wish for -
my lips to be stained by your name
not just roses but every single flower to remind me of you
me to be scared of every thunderstorm
and that is because
a part of me
a stupid godamn part of me
wishes that you'll be there to comfort me
maybe I'm still holding onto that part of me
a poet Ahmad Faraz once said
"ranjish hī sahī dil hī dukhāne ke liye aa
aa phir se mujhe chhoḌ ke jaane ke liye aa"
Just the thought of you coming back generates more happiness than the inherent pain of you walking away
which you will
you always do
with so much ease
it makes me question humanity
Maybe you didn't like me
but just for humanity,
I expected you to turn around
but you didn't
Or maybe you did and I didn't catch you
(Even though I haven't looked away since the first time I saw you)
how is it so easy for you?
how is it so hard for me?
did you ever have tears in your eyes for me?
No
No you didn't
I did
Way too many times
I have them in my eyes right now
I don't know why I have them
Maybe I am sad that you have left
maybe I am sad that I didn't leave with you
Maybe I am sad that you left with someone else
Maybe I am worried that this "someone" won't love you as much as I did
Maybe I am worried that this "someone" does love you as much as I did
Maybe I am angry that I made a fool of myself
That I wasted my time on you
maybe that's all you were
a waste of time and energy
maybe that's how I want to remember it
But the stupid part of me won't let that happen
I want to remember you as my first love
As the first person I shared a part of myself with
The first person who made me feel stupid
The person who made me a hopeless romantic
And then left me hopelessly
and now I want to turn into you
I want to pretend to care
I want to pretend to like someone
I don't want to be a hopeless romantic anymore
So that just the way I fixed you
Someone fixes me
I am sure many people want to
Many people are stupid like me
Yk the worst thing about habits?
they take 21 days to form
But won't even go away in 21 years
(I can't confirm it I'm still 16)
"Marne ke baad bhi meri aankhen khuli rhi
Aadat pari thi inhe intezaar ki"
~habits
maybe it's not even the "habit"
maybe it's just the aftertaste of it
maybe the aftertaste is like a scar
which heals over time but still leaves an imprint
"i looked down on my body
only to find myself drowned in those footprints
a sign of visitors"
I have to come to terms with it
That I am here and will always be
But you have walked away
far away
I have to let these scars heal
I have to
I can't let them stay open
they'll catch an infection
maybe I want them to
because that stupid part of me
hopelessly hopes that'll you'll come to treat it
that you'll kiss it better
you won't
someone will
someone will walk in to treat all the wounds they didn't create
someone will walk in to heal something they didn't break
"i saw the tides gently wipe away some of these footprints while leaving the most
only to make space for more visitors to come
the visitors leave , their footprints stay
until another visitor walks over them"

I have had this account for a while but I only used it for reading smut 😶🌫️ lmao and now I want to use it to bring some decorum in my life.
I think writing a blog about my day is a good way to keep myself in check. I'll be treating this blog like my journal.
My lifestyle has been very messed up from the last two years , so along with studying, I'm also gonna focus on getting my shit together in general. this account would revolve around the same , but I also yap a lot so I'm gonna talk about some random musings as well :3 :)) ;)
Hello, I am Mohammed Ayyad from Gaza. I would like to share our story with you. I was a high school student in 2023, and after that, I succeeded and entered university in my first year, studying Multimedia, a field I had dreamed of since childhood. But on October 7th, the war came and destroyed our lives, our homes, our dreams, and everything.
Now, it has been over a year, and we are living in this war and genocide. Every day, we die, every day we live in fear, and every day the children in my family are terrified due to the intensity of the bombing. My family consists of 13 members, and I am doing everything I can to provide them with food, bread, and medicine.
I ask all of you to stand with us in Gaza, whether through donations, prayers, or even sharing this message. Every action has great value in this difficult time. Thank you.

I'm the sweetest girl in town so why are you so mean?
I went to the mall with my bestfriend yesterday, it was soo fun we even went to the book store in there :))
I picked up Matthew Perry's autobiography - Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing
and I was flushed with a wave of nostalgia, sadness and overwhelming love for that man.
Even though I was born three years after friends ended , I still grew up on it and chandler was the one I related to the most ,Infact he was my friend's favourite character and we would talk about chandler a lot or repeat his jokes and that made him even more special to me.
It really feels like we are reading his personal diary as it takes us through his life. There are several pictures in there as well and one of them is of him as a teenager surrounded with a bunch of kids and the caption is -
"I have always been great with kids. Man,I wish I had one of my own"
this just..stayed with me and I think it will stay with me for a while, I miss him. I hope he's in a better place. <3

Hello, this is a longshot saving life call, I am Vivian from Gaza. I am here to request for your support to help get my insulin, just an injection for today to save my life please I beg. I was diagnosed with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes and due to the current situation in Gaza I'm unable to get my insulin injection as a result I'm here begging for little financial support to help me purchase insulin for this week. My donation link is attached in the pinned post, I might have sent this ask to you earlier but kindly consider donating and sharing. This is the only option I have at the moment to save my life from going into a coma.
