right now I am in an inbetween state
in between loving you
picking up the pieces
and contentment in being alone with myself
I think back and remember all of our good times
tinged with scorch marks from fires we called passion
but the passion turned into something we both couldn’t contain
it burned blue and white with angry words and empty apologies
singeing our hearts and burning our tongues as they passed our lips
until we couldn’t taste the love anymore
but without those fires
my tongue has been tasting things it has long since missed
my grandmother's cooking
the words to my favourite songs
the mouth ache you get from smiling so hard
and the love that I thought I would never get to feel again
so i’ll taste it and savour it and cherish it
then swallow it
it will live in my heart to remind me
that love is still beautiful
despite the current absence of it

“chains wrap my ankles
they’re there of my own volition
for I am the owner of my fate
and I am the only one that can
set myself free
- sometimes you are the only one in your way”

“you escaped chaos
finding refuge between my thighs
and peace within my embrace
for you know
you have a home within me
always”

I knew we were going to end
when the bed felt colder with you
than without you

it’s taken me a long time to even consider watching this movie, knowing how much emotional significance this has for me. All I know is I need to feel, instead of blocking my feelings. I want to let go.

a letter to the one whom I still love, I hope that you learn to become vulnerable and nourish your inner child...I know how hard it is for you to be alone, so I don’t blame you for finding someone new. I just can’t watch.

loving him after he leaves you
will not make him love you again
shutting yourself off to love
will not make him come back
being his “friend”
will not make him want to be your lover
so if he wants to leave
you have to master the art of letting go
- let the gone, stay gone
