There are lots of stars

who feel the same way

like I feel.

How could you be so happy

after all these things happened.

- Manae -

[manae]

You were not the answer.

I was.

[manae]

Poetry is not an intervention

or a prescription

or a therapy session

but you can help with it.

ー Light Flitters in Poems ー

[manae]

If you can accept yourself

as you are,

no slander can hurt you, and

no admiration can make you accept.

ー Mother Teresa ー

[manae]

Some mistakes....

just have greater consequences than others.

But you don’t have to let that night

be the thing defines you.

ー Me Before You ー

[manae]

Many brought joy and sorrow,

many throw my life off course,

while others made no difference,

whatsoever.
