When we dare to look beyond the surface, we find the raw, unfiltered self waiting to be seen and loved

Moments….

[jessieintheshadows]

Even in life’s hardest moments, when the weight feels too much to carry, there are always glimmers of light waiting to be found. It might be a kind word, a smile from a stranger, or the warmth of the sun breaking through the clouds—small, beautiful reminders that even in the darkest times, there is still something to hold onto. Every challenge we face holds within it a spark of hope, a silver lining urging us not to give up. When we open our hearts to gratitude for these little blessings, we find the strength to keep moving forward, knowing that light can always return.

Eyes can say what words never do.

They hold the weight of sadness, the quiet joy, the hidden fears.

A glance can give away what you try so hard to hide—

The things you can't bring yourself to say aloud.

Sometimes, eyes plead for understanding

When the voice stays silent out of pain, pride, or fear.

Sometimes, they linger with an unspoken "I miss you"

When everything else feels out of reach.

You can try to mask what you feel,

Smile through the ache,

But the eyes can’t help but tell the truth—

A story of love, longing, or hurt, laid bare in every look.

After the day fades and the distractions disappear, it’s in the quiet of the night when my thoughts begin to run wild. I’ve spent the day keeping busy, but as I lie here, I crave the connection that only another soul can offer. I wonder... am I meant to walk this world alone? Or is there someone out there who will see me—truly see me—and accept every part of me, just as I would cherish and protect their heart. Out of billions of people, why does it feel so impossible to find the one person who feels like home? I’m not searching for fleeting admiration or attention, but for the one who looks through the crowd and knows—I am the one they want to walk with, side by side, for the rest of their days.

I’ve learned to love myself in ways no one else ever could. I know my worth, and yet, there’s still a part of me that craves a connection deeper than self-love. It’s not that I need someone to complete me—I’m whole. But sometimes, I still long for someone to truly see me, to understand the parts of me that I keep hidden, and to love me for all that I am. I’m torn between knowing I’m enough and wishing someone else could feel that too.

The Edge of Hope

I stand between the dusk and dawn,

Where hope and despair entwine,

A fragile thread I’m clinging on,

Afraid to let it unwind.

I dreamed of mountains touched by sky,

Of rivers bending toward the sea,

But each new day, I wonder why

Those dreams still seem so far from me.

Is it the way the world turns cold,

Or is it me who’s let them go?

I ache for things I’ll never hold,

Yet still, I fight to make them so.

Some days I think it’s time to yield,

To let the darkness take its place,

But in my heart, there’s something sealed—

A tiny light I can’t erase.

For every star that fades from view,

Another whispers through the night:

“What if your dream still waits for you,

Just past the edge of giving up the fight?”

I live between the break and bend,

Between the might and what is real,

Torn between the bitter end

And the last, soft hope that I can feel.

So here I stand, afraid to fall,

Yet too afraid to let dreams die,

Holding on though I’ve lost it all,

Still longing for the chance to fly.
