BRUISES MADE OF SILENCE 

Areesha Fatima 

"Don't judge my journey

While u are chilling at the shore,

Coffee in hand,

Watching waves like they are aesthetic..

I was out there

Salt in my eyes

hands shaking

pretending I wasn't scared.

You call it drama

I call it survival

You saw me arrive

You didn't see the storms

That almost made me sink

So yeah

Judge if you want

Just know

“I didn't get here quietly"
