Shadow mind 🖤

it’s Rylee’s little shop. She’s trying to gather up some money for a new phone since her old one got taken, If you’re in the USA and see anything you like, it’d mean so much if you could support her. Thank you!!

Pieces of us

Shadow mind 🖤

1 min read

We sit across the table

cards tucked close

both holding something back.

I ask if you have what I need

and you lock down

shake your head with a small smile

I draw another, hoping this one fits

but it’s just another card in my hand.

Some days, we seem close

matching here and there

a piece that lines up

a moment that clicks.

Other days, it’s just shuffling

the wrong cards given away

both of us gues...

We drifted apart

Shadow mind 🖤

We didn't choose this,

but somehow it happened

pulled by forces we couldn’t fight.

You’re still here with me,

in the smallest things:

a smile, a memory,

a quiet thought that stays longer than it should.

We weren’t meant to end,

but the world had other plans.

Now, all that's left is the space between us

a distance I can’t cross.

Yet even as we part,

you’re in every moment,

in every breath of th...

Beside You, Always

Shadow mind 🖤

1 min read

I would be anything for you.

A stone beneath your feet

when the ground feels unsteady,

a soft breeze

when the air is too thick.

I would be a shadow

just behind you,

close enough

to catch you

but never in the way.

I would be a pause

in the rush of your thoughts,

a space to breathe

when you need air.

I would be anything for you.

Not to guide,

not to lead,

but to stand

beside you,

always....

Unfamiliar Home

Shadow mind 🖤

1 min read

The key still fit, but the house felt empty.

The walls, once full of life, stood cold and silent.

Familiar rooms no longer held comfort,

and the air was heavy with forgotten days.

Memories lingered like shadows, distant and faint,

but the warmth was gone,

lost with the people who made it home.

Now, it was just a place,

and I was a stranger passing through....

Anniversary

Shadow mind 🖤

1 min read

One year today, since we got eachother.

Your words, a lifeline to my heart.

But things went wrong, and you slipped away.

I hold onto memories, fragments of our love.

Each message, a bittersweet echo.

I miss your presence, your laughter.

Now, I’m lost, adrift without you.

Every day, I wish, for your return.

Take care, my love, you are my heart.

Come back, I’m incomplete without you....

10 month anniversary

In the vast expanse of the sky, the Sun shone bright,

But something was missing in its daily life.

For the Moon was nowhere to be found,

Leaving the Sun feeling lonely, no sound.

"Why did you leave?" the Sun cried out in dismay,

As it searched the heavens, day after day.

But the Moon stayed hidden, beyond its reach,

Leaving the Sun longing on its endless beach.

In the silence of space, the Sun...

My moon

Shadow mind 🖤

It's been two days without my moon, something that's never happened since we met, Rylee. You've always been there for me. Remember when you wanted me to post more but I said I was busy? I'm sorry. Right now, I can't find any creativity, just pure emotions. I miss you so much, and all I can do is cry.

You always called me the sun because my name means just that. But you were my moon because we'd a...

Alex paced back and forth in his dimly lit apartment, his mind a chaotic whirlwind of fear and panic. Sweat beaded on his forehead as he clenched and unclenched his fists, the weight of his intentions bearing down on him like a leaden cloak.

"I can't keep living like this," he muttered to himself, his voice a trembling whisper in the silence of the room. "I've been afraid for too long, always hes...

[Scene: A holographic communication booth, connecting two friends, Zara on Mars and Leo on Europa, millions of kilometers apart.]

Zara: Leo, can you believe we're finally going to meet in person? I never thought I'd leave Mars!

Leo: I know, right? It's incredible what's possible now. Traveling between planets is just a regular thing here on Europa.

Zara: It still blows my mind! I mean, just a f...

City of darkness

Shadow mind 🖤

1 min read

In a city where darkness rules the night,

Buildings stand tall, blocking out the light.

The streets are quiet, no sound to be heard,

As if the city itself is lost in a word.

Tall buildings reach up, like giants they stand,

Casting shadows across the land.

Windows are dark, no glimmer of cheer,

In this city of darkness, where hope disappears.

Alleys are narrow, twisting and tight,

Filled with sha...
