just stood in the grocery store staring at this fancy cheese that costs more than my lunch for a week and realized that’s the difference between feeling okay and feeling like im drowning, how do people manage all this?
scrolling through my contacts and seeing nobody to call makes me feel like, yaar, matlab samjho na, एक समय था जब हर कोई अपने लोगों में था but अब, सब छूट गए हैं and nobody even notices.
so i was in this important work meeting, trying to impress everyone, and when i went to emphasize my point i accidentally said “it’s like juggling knives while blindfolded” instead of “walking a tightrope” and just froze because like who even says that. the awkward silence was so thick i swear it became a new person in the room, now i never live that down.

sometimes i wish i could just delete the past but then i think about all the chances i didn't take, and it haunts me, like haunting ghosts of what could've been. i am so tired of pretending to chase success when all i want is to breathe and be enough.
