"The saddest songs are the ones only the heart can hear." Don't Mind the Lyrics is a poetry collection for the brokenhearted, the dreamers, and the ones who love in silence. Each verse is a melody of late-night thoughts, whispered regrets, and the ache of unspoken words. From the sorrow of one-sided love to the weight of loneliness, these poems capture the raw emotions that linger long after the world has fallen asleep. If you've ever found yourself lost in the lyrics of a song that wasn’t meant for you, this book is your anthem.
When I decided to fend for myself,
I became selfish.
When I tried to defend myself,
I became unacceptable.
When I tried to fight back,
I became unworthy.
When I chose to stay silent,
I became a coward.
When I tried to show my confidence,
I already lost the race.
When I tried to hold things together,
I already lost the war.
When I chose to express my thoughts,
I became laughter.
And when I tried to find myself,
I was already dead.
