I have learned that not everyone who holds my heart knows how to keep it. So I became my own light, finding beauty in the loneliness where I once waited to be loved.

I carry my darkness with tenderness, for even monsters deserve a little love. Beneath my armor lives a woman who knows that the most beautiful magic is daring to remain human.
I was never afraid of monsters. I feared becoming ordinary. So I stitched my darkness into beauty and learned that even a haunted soul can wear a crown.
I wear my scars like gold and my heart like a crown. I was never born to be loved by everyone. I was born to be unforgettable, even in the dreams of those who lost me.

We are not the voyage's master, only its witness. Each stroke of the oar is a small yes to the unknown, and in that yes, the self is slowly carved, like stone by the patient sea.
Fear and desire are one tide wearing two faces. No harbor waits. The sea is time, and freedom is only this: to stay awake at the oar while the abyss and the gold both call.
Every passage is narrow. On one side, the dark that devours; on the other, the gold that seduces. We never choose a shore, only how we steer between what we fear and what we desire.
