I Just Wanted a Quiet Day

Today started calm. I ate. I drank coffee. I wanted peace. But even the quietest days can get heavy — not because of what I did, but because of how it felt. And sometimes, just writing it down makes it easier to carry.

🍠 My Morning Ritual

I had sweet potato for breakfast. Simple, warm, and soft — like comfort. Then coffee, the strong kind that hits fast. For a moment, I thought this might be a good day. It felt slow and okay. But that peace didn’t last.

  • Sweet food, bitter drink — just how I like it
  • Thought maybe I’d code something today
  • Was hoping to keep my mind steady

😔 The Word That Hurt

I saw something on Yeetalk — someone said something cruel. Not even long. Just enough to sting. I don’t know why people throw words like that so casually, not knowing how deep it cuts.

  • I wasn’t even part of the drama
  • But suddenly I was the target
  • And I didn’t know where to go after

🏚 The Feeling of Staying In

I’m always home. Every day. Every night. It’s safe, but it also feels like a cage when you’re alone too long. I looked for someone to talk to, but everything felt far away. No messages. Just silence.

  • Stayed in my room, scrolling quietly
  • Didn’t want to talk — but still wished someone would ask
  • Even online felt unsafe today

🫂 What I Needed (But Didn’t Get)

I wanted safety. A voice. A place to hide. But sometimes all you get is a blank screen and a heavy chest. So I wrote instead. Maybe this blog is my safe space for now. Maybe that’s enough — even just for tonight.

  • A hug. Even just a virtual one.
  • Someone saying “you’re okay” and meaning it
  • A reminder that I’m not invisible

If you’re reading this and you’ve ever felt the same — alone, tired, or hit by one word too many — I see you. You matter. I matter. We’re still here. And some days, that’s more than enough.
