Do You Fear Losing Someone, Or Not Knowing How to Be Alone?
The more you know how to be alone, the less you fear losing someone. In fact, I've always liked traveling solo. Beyond the freedom, no one needs to accommodate anyone else. You decide what time to have breakfast, what time to go out, and how long to stay at a tourist attraction.

Ink-Stained Dreams
Oh, to be a poet in a candle-lit room, Where silence hums like a sacred tune, With scattered pages and ink-stained hands, And verses flowing like ocean sands. To bleed in lines what hearts conceal, To turn mere sorrow into something real, To dance with metaphors late at night, And shape despair in dawn’s soft light. Oh, to wander thought’s untamed road, Carrying nothing but a poet’s load— Of aching love and aching loss, Of fragile truths the world would toss. To speak of stars no one has seen, To write of places we’ve never been, To make the mundane suddenly grand, With just a pen held in trembling hand. To live in whispers, to dream in ink, To write the edge before we sink— Yes, let me live that quiet riot, Oh, to be a poet, forever defiant.

The hard truth
The man I am today was once the kid I hated to be. Growing up without any influence to be a better person is hard mentally to grow confidence. I had to learn to love myself first and appreciate me and love what I do for myself and others. Some people have never knew the work I had to put on myself to be the person I am. I am finally the person I want to be for myself and the loved ones around me. It has been easy to speak negative over my life because of how I was raised. I love myself now but know noon understand the hard battle of learning not to hate myself
