“Still in the Room”

Verse 1
I keep your picture on the windowsill,
It’s fading out but I can’t stand it still.
The way you laughed still echoes in these walls,
And I still wait for footsteps down the hall.

Pre-Chorus
Every memory cuts like glass,
I breathe you in but you don’t come back.

Chorus
’Cause you’re gone, but you’re still in the room,
Like the scent of your perfume,
Haunting every breath I take.
You’re gone, but I’m not moving on,
Every night I play along,
Pretend you’ll wake.
And I’m drowning slow in the ghost of you —
You’re gone… but you’re still in the room.

Verse 2
I talk to shadows when the lights go out,
They wear your voice, they sound like doubt.
The silence hits harder than your goodbye,
I swear I see you when I close my eyes.

Pre-Chorus
Every promise fades to dust,
But I still love you — more than enough.

Chorus
’Cause you’re gone, but you’re still in the room,
Like the scent of your perfume,
Haunting every breath I take.
You’re gone, but I’m not moving on,
Every night I play along,
Pretend you’ll wake.
And I’m drowning slow in the ghost of you —
You’re gone… but you’re still in the room.

Bridge
Maybe love’s not meant to fade,
Maybe pain’s the price we pay.
If heaven’s real, I hope you know,
I’d trade my life just to let you go.

Final Chorus
You’re gone, but you’re still in the room,
Every heartbeat’s still in tune,
With the rhythm we once made.
You’re gone, but I still hear your song,
Playing soft though you’ve been gone —
I can’t escape.
I’m still here, still half of two…
You’re gone… but you’re still in the room.

 25.5 Years in Psychiatry: My Journey Through Emotional Turmoil and Mental Breakdowns For over two decades—25 and a half years to be exact—psychiatry has been the backdrop of my life. Not a chapter, but the entire book. And while some might imagine sterile clinics and quiet therapy rooms, my reality has been far more chaotic, painful, and complex. 🚗 The Accident That Changed Everything It all began when I was just 10 years old. I was in a car accident that left me in a coma for 4 days, followed by 7 days in a subcoma. That moment split my life in two—before and after. I didn’t know it then, but the traumatic brain injury (TBI) I suffered would shape the rest of my life. At the time, there was no proper treatment available for children with TBI. Youthcare didn’t know what to do with me. So instead of rehabilitation, I was placed in four different juvenile institutions. Not because I was a criminal, but because there was nowhere else to go. 📍 The Beginning of Psychiatry From there,...

  "Superwoman" [Verse 1] She wakes before the sun Lifts the weight no one sees Puts on a brave face For a world that lets her bleed Coffee cold on the table Dreams shelved on the shelf She’s been saving everyone But forgot to save herself [Verse 2] She laughs when she’s breaking Wipes her tears with her hands They call her “so strong” But they’ll never understand All the nights spent shaking From the things she won’t say And all the times she vanished Just to help someone stay [Pre-Chorus] They think she’s made of steel But she's cracking at the seams No one ever asked her About her shattered dreams [Chorus] She’s a superwoman In a war with no name Carries silence like a weapon Takes the hurt, takes the blame She’s a fire in the cold But she's burning all alone She’s a superwoman And she just wants to come home [Verse 3] There’s medals on her scars Unseen but still earned A lifetime of battles Where no one’s returned She prays...
