Quote by Maimoona Abidi

“Some days, the light falls strangely across the floor, and I almost believe it's trying to speak telling me about the versions of myself I left behind. The girl who thought love was a folded paper note; the boy I once called home but forgot how to find; the promises we buried in the mouths of wilted flowers. I walk slower now.”

“You learn to tuck it into your coat pocket. Like lint. Like keys. It follows you to grocery stores and funerals and lazy sunday afternoons. Some days it’s light, like a paper cut. Some days it eats your breath. But no one notices. You laugh anyway. You pour coffee. You say “I’m fine” because explaining it feels like bleeding for no reason. Grief, when invisible, grows teeth.”
