An outsider

Isabella sat across from James as he poured out his heart to her, venting about the difference in opinion with his friends and family. Isabella listened patiently with an unbiased mindset, not interrupting or passing judgment as he spoke. She wanted to understand his perspective, to truly see things from his point of view.

As James continued talking, Isabella couldn't help but reflect on his wo...

New beginnings

As the night of the party arrived, Isabella put on her favorite party dress and made her way to her friend's house. ...

Mother's love prevails

Isabella had always been a strong and selfless woman, always prioritizing the happiness of others over her own. She had accepted the situation years ago when James had married Emily, knowing that it was the best choice for him and for his family. James had always been an obedient son, and Isabella knew that his mother's happiness was intertwined with his own.


The matriarch of the family, Jame...

An eye opener

James sat at his writing desk, pen in hand, hesitating. He knew this letter would change everything. After months of constantly trying to salvage their failing relationship, he had finally come to the realization that there was no hope left between him and Isabella. And now, as he put his thoughts onto paper, he could feel the finality of his decision sinking in.

 

He took a deep breath and ...

Lady on her own

In days of youth, I longed for tender bliss,

A mother's arms to cradle and console,

But now, beyond the years of childhood's kiss,

I've shed the need for such a gentle role.

 

No more shall I be swayed by false display,

Those women who feign love to learn my tale,

Then cast me off, my trust they do betray,

A comedy, a farce, a twisted tale.

 

For I am not a puppet on ...

Happily ever after......... 💔

James sat alone in his dimly lit living room, the silence engulfing him like a thick fog. He couldn't shake the feeling of regret that consumed him every day. His thoughts were constantly plagued with the memories of Isabella, the woman he had betrayed for the love of another.

He thought back to the day he had first met her, her beauty so profound that it had left him speechless. Isabella was e...

Prayers for strength

Isabella cried out to God to remove James from her life forever. She couldn't imagine living with a man who had destroyed her heart, soul, mind, and career. Someone who was immature, easily influenced by others, and who had chosen to prioritize everyone over their love. She couldn't bear the thought of being with him, even for a moment.

Isabella had endured enough pain and heartache by James. S...

Bittersweet moments

Isabella sat on the edge of her bed, staring at the envelope in her hands. It was addressed to James, and it held the letter that would put an end to their relationship once and for all.

She had thought over her decision many times, going back and forth in her mind. But in the end, she knew what she had to do. Some relationships are just not meant to be, no matter how hard we try to make them w...

Hands of time

James sat at his desk, staring at the blank white sheet of paper laid out in front of him. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair, trying to gather the courage to write what he had been wanting to say for years. He knew what Isabella's response would be, but he still had to try. He had to reach out to her, even if it was just through a letter.

They had been good friends, inseparable since th...

The hidden enemy

The devil is always at work,
Relentlessly seeking those who resist,
He despises the ones who don't befriend him,
Always yearning for their souls to persist.

He tirelessly schemes, with twisted delight,
Creating rifts between family and friends,
Planting seeds of discord and discordance,
In every encounter, his malevolence extends.

The devil is relentless, pursuing your life,
Until you...

Early years

Growing up in a luxurious mansion, Isabella felt as though she was living in a fairy tale. From the moment she opened her eyes in the morning to the time she went to bed at night, everything in her life was taken care of by her loving father and the numerous helpers that worked at their home.

The mansion was a sprawling estate, with beautiful gardens and picturesque surroundings that seemed lik...

Dance of life

He could have told her
That she's going to be poisoned,
Warned her of the lurking danger,
But instead, he chose to keep it a mystery.

He watched, as if a cruel puppeteer,
The poison's slow dance within her veins,
Content to let it unfold onto her,
To see her fate unfold as it comes.

With a twisted smile upon his lips,
He reveled in her obliviousness,
Playing games with her fragile he...

Safe haven

In a haven where solace is found,
Where familiar faces surround,
No harm can ever dare draw near,
For God's protection is always here.

Once again, peace claims its abode,
In heart, mind, and soul, it bestowed,
Slumber filled with harmonious tune,
Dreams of everlasting bliss commune.

Hearts content, tranquil and serene,
Releasing the past, forging a new scene,

One last time

Isabella lay in bed, her mind racing with thoughts of James. She couldn't seem to shake him from her mind, no matter how hard she tried. The memories of their time together played on a loop, and she felt her heart aching for him. She knew she needed to make a decision, to find a way to put a stop to this constant turmoil.

Their parents were against their relationship, citing their different bac...

Scarred love

Can relations go back to how they were,
Deep, calm, filled with joy and happiness?
Once they are hit by storms of mistrust,
And they shatter into uncountable pieces.

The heart, once whole, now broken and scarred,
A rift formed by words that struck like blade.
How can trust be mended, once so hard,
No matter how one tries to heal the fray?

The past, the innocence, now a distant dream,

Blast from the past

Isabella sat in the silent garden, surrounded by the beautiful blooming flowers and chirping birds. She was lost in her thoughts, reminiscing about the past and the loved ones who were no longer with her. It had been 20 years since her uncle, her father's brother, had passed away. His sudden death had left a huge void in her heart and in her family.

Her uncle had been a kind, loving and generou...

Patience

Patience and Isabella were nearly interchangeable in the minds of those who knew her. To her, patience wasn’t a virtue to be practiced, but rather a part of her very being. Life had trained her in such a way that she had learned to let things unfold as they were meant to, without trying to force or rush them in any way. She had come to understand that nothing in life ever happened exactly as one d...

With confidence, courage, and enthusiasm, Isabella dove headfirst into her new life. She...

Isabella had always believed that life was simple. She thought that it was full of happiness and heartbreak, love and loss, beginnings and endings. But she soon learned that life was much more complex than that.

True love

Isabella had always known that she was trapped in a golden cage. Her wealthy parents had raised her to be a proper lady, to never stray from the path that was set out for her. But Isabella was not content with a life of luxury and conformity. She yearned for something more, something real.

And then she met James. He was unlike anyone she had ever known. He was wild and free, with a heart full o...

Entangled soul

You have woven yourself

In a web of complicated relations

Your feelings are all entangled

Between false and true beliefs

You aren't able to rid yourself

From the complex emotions you're breathing

 

Your tapestry of love

Isn't an easy design to see

You have knitted everything

That pleased your heart and soul

You can't find a way out anymore

Colours of life

Your canvas of life,
A tapestry of hues,
But alas, it is stained,
With the colours of fear.

No matter which palette you choose,
No matter which brush you hold,
The final outcome remains,
A blend of dread and anxiety.

Oh, how you long to paint,
With colours of relationships,
Blending happiness, prosperity, and peace,
But alas, the canvas resists,
Fear's hues seep through,

Canvas of fear

Your fear is real,
You aren't daydreaming,
It's a reality you breathe,
Ever since you know life,
All you understand is fear.

It'll keep coming back to you,
Haunting you day and night,
In every new face you meet,
Every hello of a stranger you hear,
Nothing but fear will generate.

With the one you love intensely,
Your trust is coloured with colours of fear,
No matter how much you try...

Winter song

Upon awakening to birdsong's sweet refrain,
In winter's crisp embrace, both soft and kind,
A melody echoes, a newfound strain,
Love and romance entwined, I soon find.

With sudden charm, these birds take flight,
Their lyrics enchanting, a magical spell,
In unison, they sing with pure delight,
A morning's beauty, too lovely to tell.

Each note, a whisper of joy and bliss,

Remembering the situations that caused wounds does help
We analyze better and let's us to introspect

Staying away

There's no need for a reunion,
Some relations are better from a distance.
I'm not praying to be back any soon or later,
Toxic-turned people and situations aren't any better.

Keeping a healthy heart is preferred,
Than letting malice, hate, and envy reside within.
Corrupting our souls with ugly thoughts and feelings,
At daggers end continuously with each other.

In the midst of darkness, when light's out of sight,
When all seems shattered, broken in the night,
Just delve deep within, where your heart resides,
And you'll find me there, a constant by your side.

In moments of loneliness, when no one is near,
When friends and kin have faded, out of here,
Simply place your hand, tender on your chest,
And feel my words beating, trying their best.

It's not my freedom I bartered,
It's my self-respect and self-esteem.
I do care to preserve and keep,
Instead of letting it be slaughtered.
By people who gaslight and insult.

With its twisted ways it brings out the worst,
In the person being gaslighted,
But it also exposes the one who gaslights,

Divide creates space

Don't feel guilty, don't be ashamed,
For it was meant to be that way.
Our paths diverge, untamed and wild,
While I remain shy and polite.

The tides can never meet the ebbs,
We're destined to wander separate shores.
You, born to roam and rejoice,
None can bind you, not even love's hold.

Dames line up, awaiting your embrace,
Their beauty vying for your attention.

No bonds of spirit to intertwine our way.

To never be the same, that much is clear.
Destinations distant, forever apart,
Our souls destined to wander, never to restart.

No moral obligations weigh you down,
No sins to bear, no karma to abide,
In freedom's realm, your spirit shall be found.

No guilt shall haunt your thoughts, your soul's delight,

A peace that banishes the darkest night.

Faded memories never hurt

Cause no pain, nor any strain

Virtues  nor letters

No love, no hate
