🌫️ “Disappear, Gently” 🌫️
A soft whisper for those who carry too much and ask for too little.

Sometimes,
I wish I could disappear—
Not forever,
Just long enough
To find my breath
In a world that never stops moving.
---
Not to break hearts,
Or cause worry,
Or spark whispers behind closed doors.
But to step away
From the weight
Of being “fine.”
---
I want to fold myself
Into a quiet place—
A rented room,
A nameless town,
A coffee mug warmed by silence
And a window that watches rain fall
Without asking why.
---
No performance.
No updates.
No need to explain the ache
Behind my eyes
Or the heaviness that sleep won't fix.
---
I don’t want to be lost.
I want to be
Unfound
Just for a moment—
Long enough to let go
Of being dependable,
Predictable,
Strong.
---
Let me wander,
Not far—
Just away from the noise
That demands I always
Answer.
Always appear.
Always smile.
---
And when I return—
Because I always do—
I'll bring with me
The softness I found
In the quiet,
The strength I didn't know
I was allowed
To rebuild.
---
So if you don’t hear from me,
It’s not the end.
It’s a beginning
I’m reclaiming
In peace,
Alone,
And finally,
Without apology.
