“I hate when I can't control my loneliness”
― -Leju Thomas

“Silenced by the world, I stand alone,
My voice unheard, my thoughts unknown.
The pain inside, it cuts so deep,
A wound that's raw, that cannot sleep.

The silence is the most painful part,
It tears at me, it breaks my heart.
I scream inside, but no one hears,
I'm lost in darkness, consumed by fears.

The world moves on, but I stand still,
A prisoner of my own free will.
I long to speak, to make a sound,
But silence reigns, and I am bound.

The pain is real, it's all I know,
A never-ending, endless woe,
I can't speak, I can't fight.
It's painfully poetic
how this heart has been silenced.”

“I’m Fine

I stand on the precipice of solitude,
A tempest raging within, unseen by all.
They depart, like autumn leaves in the wind,
Their absence a hollow echo, a fading call.

I don’t care who leaves my life,
Their footsteps erased from the sands of time. The bonds we wove, now frayed and brittle, Yet I stand resolute, unyielding, in my prime.

The pain, a searing fire, consumes my chest, Anger coils like vipers, venomous and cold. They say love is a balm, a healing touch, But what if love itself is the blade that unfolds?

I lose them, one by one, like stars in the night, Their constellations fading, swallowed by the void. Yet I cling to my essence, my fractured soul, For in this desolation, I find strength, unalloyed.

I don’t care who I lose, for they are but shadows, Their laughter, their tears, mere echoes in the gale. As long as I don’t lose myself, my core unshaken, I’ll wear this mask of indifference, my heart’s veiled tale.

So let them depart, let them fade into oblivion, I’ll stand here, battered and scarred, but alive. For I am the tempest, the flame, the unyielding force, And in this fractured existence, I’m fine”
