Title: Love under different skies
we were born under different skies
with our stars crossed never to align
we were born in the age of war
yet with a heart longing for love.
our love can only bloom in dreams
never in the reality of this cursed world
we are hated and feared for being different,
we are fated to extinction, by their hands.
all we ever knew was war
we lived in constant conflict against each other,
when our skies met and our stars crossed,
all that was left was blood and sorrow.
yet when I met you,
all I felt was love and be glad to be a man,
and I saw you felt the same, as women from a different sky
yet destiny fated otherwise and embraced not our love.
as I live in this world
as a drifter without a regret,
I only ask one thing,
"save my village and tell them stories of us".

Conditioned Reflex
"I've twisted myself into knots to minimize my presence, curling up like a question mark to occupy as little space as possible. It's a delicate balance between self-effacement and invisibility. I've learned to avoid attention, to erase myself, because existing meant being in the way. I've mastered the art of silence, like a mime with helium in my heels and a mute voice box, to remain unheard. Because being heard meant chaos, and existing meant judgment.
