Who are we when no one’s watching?

Are we our true selves, or

Do we continue acting?

Who are we when no one’s watching?

Do we take the mask off, or

We just continue faking?

Do we let our guards down,

Do we sit back and frown,

Do we allow ourselves to breakdown?

Do we still strive for perfection,

Do we still seek for validation,

Or do we just sit in reflection?

What happens behind the scenes?

D...

My heart sings with gladness every time it pours.

There’s something about it, the rain, that brings me joy.

I love to hear the mighty roar of thunder, mingled with the whispers of the wind…

The rhythm cannot be forgotten, my best friend too.

Shola.

Unlike me, she hated when it poured.

There was something about it that got her down on all fours.

She hated the rhythm I was in love with.

It remind...

When I found you, I found life.

You, were my breath of fresh air.

You, were my ray of sunshine.

You, were all I imagined and more.

You, were mine.

When I found you, I found light.

The search ended. I needed no other, for I had found my forever.

Like peas in a pod, our lives were intertwined, we were meant to be together.

With you, nothing else mattered. You made me happy, no matter the weather.
