They were once strangers, never knowing they would end up together for so long. Then, one lie changed everything. Now, even though they are still together, they keep hurting each other—one with sharp words, and the other by making mistakes.

There was a time when they were so addicted to each other, talking for hours and hours without ever getting bored or running out of things to say. Now, they rarely even speak on the phone.

They used to fight but would fix it instantly, as if nothing had ever happened. But now, a fight breaks out over the simplest reasons, only driving them further apart.

Yet, if they are destined to be together, they will find their happiness again and become even closer than before.

    I don't know where I go when I leave the moment I'm living. My body keeps moving forward, but my mind disappears somewhere else. I carry other people's pain, overthink every little thing, and forget to care for myself. Maybe I'm not tired of life. Maybe I'm just tired of carrying everything I feel.

  • THE CHANGED MIND

    We think, we decide, we understand, we rethink, we change our minds. We regret. The pattern goes the same. And time flies; our trust breaks, we get hurt, and we stop trusting our gut feelings; we lose confidence. After doing the same, we get two results: first, we learn & become strong, and gain experience & second, we get broken, and we develop trust issues.
