Why did it take so long
for me to realize
that everything that happened
ruined me
“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”

#qotd : do you use notebooks to scribble your thoughts?
I don’t buy a lot of notebooks as I used to since I’ve started using them instead of staring at what I should write. There used to be an existing thought inside my head that whatever I write had to be perfect. Otherwise, it was a waste to use my favourite notebooks, yet I just stared at them for years. It was such a silly thought because the moment I started writing what was in my mind, there came a sudden relief, almost like an epiphany that makes you realize the answer has been staring right in front of your face. These vintage notebooks are perfect to write some poems while in bed or on a car trip because the digital age is taking over us mindlessly. I’ve been changing a few habits of mine recently to mindfully work and be aware of what I’m doing due to the amount of exhaustion staring at a screen causes me.
