“For the one last time, I want to go back,
To the beginning, where it all started,
Not to fix anything,
Not to mend anything,
To detect the force that’s pulling me back and forth,
To look for the string that’s messing with my vulnerabilities,
Not to play around with my haunting memories,
Not to sit around my screaming roars,
But to crush the last resilient chord,
That's stopping me from moving on.”
― Hareem Ch, Muse Buzz

“Surrender will always feel like dying, and yet it is the necessary path to liberation.”
