hey OP,
you don’t need a battlefield to feel worthy
you already are
love didn’t abandon you, it just changed shape for a while

i know what it’s like to ache with meaning
to see something sacred in someone
and then lose it in the silence

but the fact that you feel this deeply
that you care this much
that’s not weakness
that’s proof you’re still alive

don’t blaze a path toward death
build one toward art, rebellion, kindness, beauty
let women fall in love with the world you create
and if they don’t, you’re still magic

good luck, traveler
