What the fire taught me about rising from the ashes. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"My heart still burns, but not for you."There are people who lie to your face without even flinching. Who look you in the eye and let you believe every word. And then there are the moments that finally show you the truth, and somehow that is the thing that sets you free.I know what it is to mistake silence for peace. To believe that if I just held it together, the lie underneath would stop mattering, and that naming it out loud would only make it more real than staying quiet ever did. It took m

Dear Inner Circle,I wanted to continue with something honest. A private poem. A reflection. An invitation to trust the quiet mending that has been unfolding inside you all along.This month’s theme is patience and time.

The kind that settles softly, even when the world demands you move at its pace.Thanks for reading Saira The Poet! Subscribe for free to receive new p
