The Last Confession: I Burned the Box of Unsent Love Letters, And This is What Happened Next
For ten years, it sat in the back of my closet—a plain, battered cardboard box, stained at the corners from a forgotten spill. It wasn't full of letters I’d received, but letters I’d written, but never mailed. Love letters, apologies that choked in my throat, bursts of rage that evaporated into cold silence, and desperate pleas for attention. All directed at people who, thankfully or regrettably, never read them. It was, in essence, an archive of an alternate life I was always too terrified to step into.

The Day I Finally Faced My Fear of the Dentist’s Chair. AI-Generated.
The first time I walked through the dentist’s door, I didn’t even make it to the chair. The smell of antiseptic, the distant hum of tools, and the memory of every horror story I’d ever heard hit me all at once. My chest tightened, my hands started to sweat, and before anyone even called my name, I turned around and walked right back out.

Alone Night with Love, Starlit Hearts
The night wrapped us in its tender silence, as though the world had stopped turning just for us. Above, the sky stretched wide and endless, scattered with a million stars. The Milky Way gleamed like a silver river, flowing across eternity.

Secret Letter. Content Warning.
It started innocently enough. A simple scroll through TikTok at 2 AM, insomnia keeping me awake in my cramped studio apartment where I'd been freelancing for months without human contact. The algorithm, that omniscient digital deity, must have sensed something in my desperate thumb movements because suddenly my feed bloomed with candles and crystals, with young women whispering incantations into their phone cameras.

ZERO TO HERO
I used to believe that success was reserved for “other people.” You know—the confident ones, the smart ones, the people who never seemed to second-guess themselves. I was not one of them. I was the quiet kid, the one who sat at the back of the class, terrified of being noticed.

Two strangers seated side-by-side on a long overnight train ride. Content Warning.
The notebook feels cheap under my fingers, the cardboard cover flimsy. This pen is already starting to skip. But it’s midnight, and the train is a dark serpent sliding through the sleeping countryside, and I can’t sleep. The hum is in my bones. That low, metallic thrumming that feels like being inside a giant, moving creature. It’s the sound of distance being eaten. The sound of leaving.

The Things We Do in the Dark. Content Warning.
October 12th I saw him again today. It’s stupid, really. The way my body reacts. A full-system reboot from a thirty-second interaction in a coffee line. It’s not even about the words. It’s about the space between them.
