Who Would've Thought?

Who would've thought
We'd see this day?
Anime, poems, movies, all turned to dust now
My body is numb,
But I think it hurts somewhere.
Who would've thought
It was all a play?
Pretty face, pretty voice, maybe pretty lies
The actor was good
But I think the violence won't let it air
Who would've thought
It was always one way?
Waited for him to cross the road
My hand out,
But I believe the speedy cars didn't let him dare
Who would've thought
All the sweet talks would start with a heyy?
Said he didn't want to hurt me so didn't bother to explain
The orator was good
But the speech made it hard to hear
Who would've thought
My favorite month would no longer be may?
Never missed the chance to look for him despite my aching eyes
The sun was cruel
But at least the winter is near
Who would've thought
Black would be my new gray?
Astronaut, moon, piano, everything so surreal
The artist was good,
But his art was all a snare
Who would've thought
I'd believe everything he'd say?
Would've preferred hurt over silence any time
My grip is tight,
But to leave me hanging, that is so unfair
Who would've thought
I wouldn't want to stay?
Told me to trust no one, nor to expect
I may be strong
But there's only so much a human can bear
Who would've thought
I would no longer need the chord to my bed?
Talked till 3 in the morning, said I'm a good listener
I think he fell asleep
But there's so much more I wanted to share
Who would've thought
I'd no longer need to check my phone every two minutes?
Constant cycle of work, gym, games and habits that I'd never know
I forgot the dream
But I think he said he liked my hair
Who would've thought
I'd have to pay?
Always put his feelings first, not a care of my own heart
I may be rich
But I forgot I'm not a millionaire 
Who would've thought
It'd be over before it even starts?
Moments lingered, but memories now seem like an illusion
Ten for me, five for us
Why take it this far when you didn't even care?

Why Pride and Prejudice Endures: A Look at the Timeless Appeal of a Classic Novel

Hey everyone! I'm back with another post and today I'm going to talk about one of my most favorite novels ever. Pride and Prejudice by the legend herself, Miss Jane Austen. Pride and Prejudice is a classic novel that has captured the hearts of readers for centuries. The story follows the lives of the Bennett family, particularly the daughters, as they navigate the societal expectations and pressures of the early 19th century. While the novel is often seen as a romance, it is also a commentary on the societal norms and values of the time.  One of the main themes of Pride and Prejudice is the idea of pride and prejudice or the pride that individuals take in their social status and the prejudices that they hold about others based on their status. The character of Mr. Darcy is a prime example of this, as he initially looks down on those who are not of his social class, including the Bennett family. However, as the story progresses, Darcy begins to see the error of his ways and ...

Fragile Remnants

It's like each breath comes with a condition of being alone Love's icy touch leaves me with a numb body, a mind of stone Maybe I'd tolerate the skin, but I hate it when it sinks deep into my bone. The poems can't be written without letting go of every hand I've ever known The evil is buried somewhere, or it would've been a struggle to switch the tone Why does peace come to me at the price of giving up everything I own? The wound becomes fresh every time the scar is shown Broken heart, moist eye, for sins such as this, I can never atone  You can feel me sinking daggers into your flesh, then tell me how you still condone?
