let it be
I found a piece of paper Torn from a small notebook I sat on my bed Surrounded by boxes full of the life I had here Ready to begin the next chapter 2000 miles away I thought about our story I never thought it would be anyone but you

If it’s not me
we both hurt each other but you moved on and im still alone i struggle every day with the damage I was left with i punish myself, for what I did by keeping everyone at arms length refusing to let anyone in refusing to develop connections we fell apart and it feels like I still haven’t fully put myself back together i don’t even know how to you picked up the pieces and kept going you met someone new and then again, someone new you made it look effortless i thought maybe I was being punished for the way I treated you this is just what I deserved but we both hurt each other so why is this so easy for you it’s impossible for me i’ve met so many people they come and they go but, in the end, i get hurt and that’s just how it goes you took my pain, and now the world is handing it back to me

you moved on
You met someone new And I wondered why it was so easy for you But every time I tried to move on I got imposter syndrome Or I met someone who in the end, hurt me My heart was breaking, Alittle more each time I tried to take a step toward moving on But then, you unfollowed me And I thought maybe You’re having a hard time too.

Moving on
We become the strongest version of ourselves when we think we’re not going to make it through another day, and we do.

& we do
You’re stronger than you think you are You’ve gotten through every difficult day in your entire life up to this very second, this is just another difficult day you’re going to get through So every time you want to give up Every time you want to break down Every time you want to give into the pressures of life Let the strength that got you here, carry you through the rest of today Because tomorrow is a new day And you will wake up, with new strength to get you through your next bad day, whenever that is I promise, everything happens for a reason. Someday, this is all going to make sense. The pain and the hurt You feel alone but there’s a reason why it doesn’t work out with anyone else.

Stronger than you think
Two heartbeats, together, they sync, apparently. And I wonder if that ever goes away, or if you just share the same heartbeat with everyone you’ve ever loved. Our hearts still beat, but are they the same after all this goodbye

Our hearts still beat
I kissed someone else And it didn’t feel wrong. Is this what healing feels like Falling back in love with yourself

A Lesson on Moving On
The first year is the hardest they say, Just get through the first year. Give yourself the first year to miss them. The first year I’ve found Is spent doing a lot of things alone. Relearning how to do things... alone Like how to walk through the front door on thanksgiving without you. The first year you have to learn to be you again.

Alone
In all the ways you said she was beautiful those parts of me caught fire and it burned until it nearly burnt the pain away and you lit the match
