and even if i was a cloud
if it meant i'd be the only thing you'd ever touch.

april 1, 2024 — luna
oh, luna, tell me so
do you love me enough to let me go?
if you're the moon and i'm the sun
don't you think i'm better off alone?
oh, luna, i'm not the only star you'll find
rigil's brighter and toliman's one of a kind
being good is different from perfect
don't settle, consider every aspect
when i said you were the best thing to happen to me
i actually meant that only you ever stole my need to be free
oh, luna, i hope you'll understand
that going with you is to forget me
but being me won't stop my heart
from knowing we were written in the stars
and how i loved you from the start
always and forever, from here and afar

febuary 3, 2024 — night time is a past-time
darling, the moon and stars know your name
every night i sing about it with shame
and every sonnet i write is the same
will you ever forgive me again?
in the dark of night, these terrors lie
creepies that crawl and bats that fly
something i can't face, in the clouds i'm still high
'cause my greatest fear is saying goodbye
but i used to bike in this neighbourhood of mine
lately all that's passed the streets is time
so it goes and the churchbells chime
i'll have to accept i'm out your light of lime
moon's not out tonight, maybe i'll be fine
maybe this time i won't dream you're mine
moon's not out tonight, maybe i'll be fine
maybe this time i won't dream you're mine

Edit Note: I'm really amazed by how much love this post got. Guess it just shows we're all in the same boat. I do have other humorous writing memes on this tumblr under the same tag, if you're interested. Never give up writing! ❤️
Edit Note 2: I can't believe this has reached 10000 notes. Been on tumblr for almost ten years (different account) and nothing like this has ever happened before. Thank you! 😊
november 7, 2024 — love of mine
you know i'd love to stay the same
you know there's nothing left to say
neither of us stand at fault
yet this is the price we pay
maybe in another life
we wouldn't have this strife
free from the guilt
and yearnings fullfilled
you deserve someone who'll stay
through the good and the bad
and i'm sorry it couldn't be me
despite what we had
but i deserve someone too
to make the long run with me
not run me through
happy to love all i'm yet to be
no, you don't need me
if you did, i would not have scars
no, you aren't sorry
if you were, i wouldn't have to count
i think it's time to face our truth
heal and forgive what remains of our youth
yes, i loved you
but no love of mine will heal you

december 7, 2024 — childhood dwellings
the leaves have turned brown
the world has quieted down
icy winds seep through our fingers
biting cold that sleeps and lingers
that weightless checkered blanket
wilted flowers basking in the sunset
that empty swing swaying
childish laughter keeps ringing
we cried and laughed
through times dark or daft
all good things come and go
naive promises of "i love you so"
as we carved our names in the rough bark
and vowed to protect eachother's heart
your arms became a home
and i became your own
even as time is not as forgiving
as when we were kids and simply living
the sea will guide us to our fated shores
tides sweeping sands of long-past wars
as the stars witness our beginning and end
the best in the world, my only friend
those handheld cracks in the tree
will always know it was you and me

there is a hole in my heart
and it's shaped like you.

december 23, 2023 — holy
it was easier to believe
in tales of adam and eve
even though i could never find
the god they said was so kind
i'd grown used to it all
the gentle hoax the church befalled
a blind-faith religion or a cult of sacrifice
either way, it served only to pacify
so when you spoke the illicit truth
that you loved me despite my being a sleuth
you forgave the sins that were not mine to repent
and every dime, for you i'd spent
you showed me the truth of love
and it felt holier than any angel from above

july 12, 2024—10 years and forever
you're making dinner, i'm sat on the counter
with my quiet music playing on the speaker
wet hair sticking to my neck and i'm talking about my day
you wait for me to finish and i'll wait for you to say
little quips and jokes with a quiet smile
i stare while you laugh for a little while
the hot pot steams and i get the plates
you plate the food and i sit and wait
sprinkling soda fizz and dim-lit rooms
our stained couch with bass-powered booms
really shitty movie, the bright tv display
i laugh as you squint your eyes in dismay
you fall asleep and i wash the dishes
ten years ago, dreams were only wishes
ten years from now, we'll earn riches
right now, we heal from our stitches
the house is small and the table is too
my heart feels home, right here with you
i'll tell you a secret, just between us two
for the rest of my life, i'll keep loving you

Hello, I hope you are well🌹
I am Hazem Mahmoud Hamada, 44 years old, a Palestinian man, from Gaza. I am seeking to save my family of 6 members from the hell of war by moving to a safe place until the ugly war ends.Our suffering began on October 14, 2023, when my family was forcibly displaced from north to south in a life- threatening situation. As a result, our homes were completely destroyed and demolished, and thus our business went to waste. There was nothing left as a source of livelihood. There are no shelters to shelter us or a source of livelihood to live on.
Your support is our only hope for survival after losing everything.
We hope you will continue to support us by donating or sharing to help save and rebuild our lives. Every contribution is important and greatly appreciated
Our campaign is verified by Gaza Vetters
