What's romantic
During my college days, I once tutored a group of children. One day, while explaining the verse "醉后不知天在水，满船清梦压星河" ("Drunk, I know not the sky in the water, but my boat is filled with dreams, pressing against the Milky Way"), I couldn't help but exclaim, "This line is so romantic!"

Grace in Every Step
In every step, she carries grace, With quiet strength, she holds her place. Her head held high, her gaze serene, A testament to what she’s seen. Her words are few, but each one pure, With dignity, she does endure. Through storms of life, she stands upright, A beacon in the darkest night. Her poise, a mark of inner might, Her presence, calm and always right. In her, we see the finest way, A lady’s dignity, on full display.

Thank you, Iceland
Stepping ashore just a flicker of light lit her soul. The last forest’s coal. A candle’s flame in a pool of its own wax,

I'll still be happy without you
Milkshakes and hot fries at the diner, reading until I fall asleep, twirling sundresses in the rain, Taylor Swift car concerts,

Shattered. Content Warning.
Glass dwellings could never sustain us My cool presence tempered your heat Until crack repairs broke me Fragile walls mirrored truth

Breaking Free
You can now comprehend that it has nothing to do with it and that it is just an itch, after all. Some people go only ahead or around the same circle of lies, running away from the same issues, and ultimately, in the end, they will again betray another person as they did before.
