a new start
it was something i felt from a million miles away,
the ending,
the beginning.
watching the light fade away till it flashed to darkness.
i can see the flickers of distant flames,
and for a moment hope flickers within my heart in the same rhythm.
some part of me feels
that even though everything is dark right now,
a new start will come and bring me back to life.
everything right now feels so desolate.
the night sky no longer shimmers with the stars that once loved me so.
seeing the flare of light from faraway,
thinking “who was she? the girl i once called my own?”
yet the crystalline glass of the suncatcher she gave me
still shines with the light of the sun and its galaxies.
the silky softness of what we used to be,
it glitters with newfound gold.
a new start will improve upon the old.
wonder, wonder, wonder.
will the doors that close behind me ever open again?
their dim lamp gleams through the cracks between the hinges.
i wonder what they’re doing back there.
i wonder if they’re having fun.
but a new door sparkles in front of me.
a new start will be a clean slate.
Normally don’t post this kind of thing but this is how I work through my emotions
I don’t want to, trust me, but I’ll be damned if they think of me as a fool.
“I’m going to have to give you up. And it’s the last thing I want to do.”
— but if I don’t let go now, I won’t make it
the hardest thing i had to do this year was not to remember you as the person who loved me in ways no one else ever had before but to remember you as the person who left me broken in ways i didn’t think i could break.
it doesn’t matter how you loved me, it matters how you left me.
I’ll be here waiting for you. I want you to know that if you ever decide that you want me, I’m here. I’ve always been incredibly stubborn much to my own dismay. And it’s not going to be any different this time. So I will wait for you. Maybe you will come back, probably you won’t. But I’m not going to stop waiting for you.
I’m not giving up on us.
You caused the unholy war between my head and my heart.
