When we asked about love,
they told us ,
It's where stars land when they fall.
A place of light,
a place of fire,
a place that burns beautifully…
until it doesn't.
When we asked about friendship,
they said ,
It's affection without conditions,
the kind that sees you, stays with you,
even when you're silent, broken, or unsure.
When we asked about hatred,
they whispered ,
It swallows the heart whole.
It doesn't announce its presence,
it just creeps in…
turning warmth into war,
one heartbeat at a time.
When we asked about patience,
he smiled,
and replied ,
I teach you how to breathe in between heartbreaks,
how to wait without bitterness,
how to exist without demanding.
AndWhen we asked about endurance ,
she came heavy,
with tired eyes and scarred hands,
and said ,
I give you the weight no one else can carry,
and I teach you how to carry it anyway.
When we asked about pain,
they didn't speak.
Instead, they just looked away,
eyes glazed with memories,
and let a single tear fall,
silent,
unnoticed,
but loud enough to echo inside us.
And when, out of exhaustion,
we asked for nothing,
they said,
You already have everything.
The ache, the joy, the questions, the hope ,
They are all yours.
You are already holding the universe in your chest.
