Last one standing
Unique ; is it the new normal?
I was 4 when I first heard the adjective
I was 10 when I heard it being used for me
I was joyous and blushed timidly in glee
I thought of myself as distinctive as the snow that falls on December 1st
I thought of myself as the honey dew that quenches the oak's thirst
i thought of myself as sole as the titanic beneath the sea
I thought of myself as second to noone ; there's only and only me
But as I grew up
I stepped down
I lurched around
I stumbled upon an abundance
Of personalities that strike resemblance
to me , and me to others
"Was it all just a farce?"
Was I not as unparalleled as the striking beauty of marble under moon?
was I not as novel as the trooping of hues paraded across june?
was I not as isolated in this world as i thought I would be?
I wanted to be second to noone; the world to have only and only me
But as I walk through my life I find a piece of myself in everyone I see
some beautiful some horrific
and some beautifully horrific
some prude , some so kind
some weak and some with a sharp mind
some eccentric, some basic
some with witts and some ritz
some ambitious, some unsure
and some who couldn't take it anymore
but one piece that I'd find in them all
t'was their wish to be the last one to fall
that one piece encapsulating everything-myself
a bit of me that made them me
a bit of me that made me myself
no matter who's in the right and who's wrong
no matter whose weapon is feeble and whose strong
no matter who started first
no matter who said more
I'll always have the last laugh
I'll always reach the shore
so I am second to noone
there will only and only be me
because I'll be the last one standing
no matter what the scene
LESSGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOO

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.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Day 4/271 days until finishing my A-level resit
Suuuuuper productive day today! Caught up on all the work I’d missed at certain points in the past 2 weeks.
Finished all my work for tutoring next week
Completed my revision on the cognitive perspective
Finally perfected some knowledge on Moray (1959)
Even had time to meet up with a friend group before they head off to uni next week! Had some lovely vegetarian curry that my friend made me and found some conkers :)
Snack of the day ~ falafels and hummus

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"
thankyouuuuu 🩷🩷🫂🫂
