I’ve Always Wanted to Say I’m Sorry

 I blamed myself,  

the one who ruined me,  

every single day.


The desire to live well  

felt like a luxury I didn’t deserve.


All I could do  

was endure.  

Endure, and endure, and endure again.  

And maybe…  

one day,  

a good day might still come.


But the world stayed the same.  

Or maybe it was me  

who stayed the same—  

while blaming everything else.


Even trying to die  

wasn’t easy.


There were so many nights  

I cried myself to sleep,  

wishing I wouldn’t wake up the next day.


Maybe breaking down would be better.  

Maybe if I gave up,  

this pain would finally leave me.


I tried to die.  

My heart died every day.  

But still…


There was a small part of me  

that wanted to live—  

because I felt sorry  

for the me who hadn’t done anything yet.


I looked back  

on this broken life I've lived.  

And I thought,  

maybe if I hold on just a bit longer,  

a good day might still come.


That one thin thread of hope  

is what’s still keeping me alive.


And to you—  

whoever you are,  

will you give yourself  

just one more chance, too?


What does your silence sound like?

A Time Stuck in Stillness

  You offered me quiet comfort. “Don’t give up,” you said. “Just hold on for one more day.” But then— you left without a word. I couldn’t believe it. Where did you go? Where must I go to see you again? I was left in a place where no path could reach you. Later, I came to understand. You carried every burden silently and left on a long journey alone. Since that day, the world has felt unfamiliar. I stopped speaking. Even the sounds of the street, the passing strangers, and the sky itself— they all felt like they turned away. But the hardest part was time itself. Time moved for everyone else, but I felt trapped within it. My memories stayed frozen, while reality flowed past me. Losing someone doesn’t just mean losing them— it means losing a part of yourself, too. I know that now. And here I am, missing a piece of me, still standing in this unmoving time. Still trying to live. Please share the painful story that’s been quietly living in your he...

Becoming: One Step at a Time

  I’ve been walking this path, and slowly, it’s beginning to feel like mine. It’s not anyone else’s road— I’m trying to find my own. And along the way, I’m adding my own colors to it. It’s okay to be slow. It’s okay to take the long way around. Because this is the path I chose. What about you? Where are you right now? And what colors are you painting your path with? There is no right answer. Every road, holds a place that belongs only to you. Just don’t forget— there is a color that only you can bring to this journey. You’re not behind. You’re becoming. #soulbridge #innerjourney #emotionalhealing #findingmyway #quietgrowth #selfreflection #gentlewords #mentalhealthmatters #softstrength #youarenotalone

There Is No Darkness Without End

There was no moment of certainty. No one ever told me, “This is your path.” That morning was quiet. The station was still. And at the end of the dark tunnel, a single light was shining. Suddenly— I wanted to walk toward that light. Not because the path was clear, not because I knew the destination, but simply because I wanted to go toward it. So I walked. One step, and then another. For the first time, I thought— maybe this is the path I’m meant to take. This is only the beginning of my journey. But to you, and to everyone reading this, I wanted to say— There is no darkness without  What does your silence sound like?   Share your story in the comments below.   #SoulBridgeVoices
