Somewhere only we know. (:

Somewhere between the last train and the first light,

we became strangers to the answers we sought.

I traced the outline of your absence in my mind—

a shape that felt too familiar to forget,

too quiet to hold.

Maybe we were always walking parallel,

sharing the same sky but never the same stars.

In another story, maybe the clocks were kinder.

But here, time only moves in one direction:

away.

I have this calm nostalgia for a smile on your face that I’ve only seen in my dreams—

how it beamed, like sunlight on dewy grass.

We filled the spaces with half-truths,

as though honesty might undo us.

Somewhere, there’s a version of us

who didn’t hesitate at the crossroads.

But that wasn’t this version.

Here, our stories don’t intertwine and we’ve never heard each other giggle.

I still hear the hum of unsaid things,

like static between distant radios.

If I close my eyes, I can almost see us,

folded into some secret corner of the world—

where your name is a song that never ends.

But reality doesn’t ask permission to let go.

We placed our bets on a question without answers,

and in the end, the silence wasn’t a verdict,

just a quiet farewell to something that never began.

And I guess we will never find out.

Listen : Somewhere only we know

A Flicker in Forever.

As I walk among penumbras where time folds thin, An echo, a ripple, a zephyr within. The stars—silent sentinels, cold and austere, Mark moments unclaimed, neither now nor yesteryear. A query lingers, soft and untied, Not seeking truths, but places to abide. What is the self but a transient flame, Dancing to whispers it dare not name? The earth weaves fables in roots and stone, Its cadence steady, yet never its own. I envy the river, its purpose arcane, Flowing to seas where no truths remain. Belonging eludes me, spectral, frail, A vessel unmoored, a gale with no trail. Yet in this untethering, I find reprieve, The freedom to drift, to simply believe. To be redundant, a wraith in the haze, Unheralded, nameless through infinite days. To witness the stars in their silent bloom, And the universe fade into glorious doom. I crave no laurels, no anchored creed, Just the infinite vast and a soul unfreed. To meld with the cosmos, a whisper, a sigh, To linger in voids where none question why. Le...

And if you really must, do so gently.

You know I think it’s the little things that make people beautiful, and are people beautiful? In every shred of the corners of this universe, yes they absolutely are. Like the quiet rituals that feel so small they might slip through your fingers but are somehow weighty enough to hold your entire world together. The first sip of coffee that’s less about caffeine and more about a silent dialogue with your spirit. Or the sunlight that sneaks through the curtains and paints an unexpected masterpiece on your walls, as if the universe decided to bless your room for no reason at all. These are the unassuming moments that don’t shout, don’t demand to be noticed, but they wait, knowing full well they are the heartbeat of life itself. More often than not, in the middle of winning wars or moving mountains, people lose themselves in the little things. And I think that’s the most beautiful thing about people. The way we stumble into these moments without realizing we’re about to turn them into me...

Miles of space to play with

People like to believe the universe is some grand orchestrator, shuffling fate cards like a moody blackjack dealer. But sometimes, it just sits back with popcorn and watches two people fumble their way into a slow-burning disaster that smells vaguely of espresso and unresolved tension. Enter Nat and Miles, two souls with more chemistry than a freshman lab fire, and just about as much common sense. By now, I assume you know Miles a bit. So allow me to introduce Nat. Nat. Now there’s a piece of work the universe clearly cooked up on a cheeky day. All sharp wit, unreadable playlists, and the kind of elegance that doesn’t try, it just is. She walks into a room like she already knows the ending but still watches everyone else catch up. She’ll dissect a business pitch, write a blog that punches through your chest, and still look vaguely annoyed that you haven’t figured out how she takes her coffee (strong, like her opinions, with a splash of almond milk and quiet judgment). But don’t be fool...
