Hi alex, it’s me. I’m writing to you on a plane back to toronto. So much has changed since that day it almost feels like a lifetime ago. There’s some things to update you but i’ll have to do it one by one. First of all I graduated! I’m currently in the midst of a job search right now but it feels insane that I’m done with school for now. I’m a bit unclear on my future right now but i’m giving myself the grace to figure it out. Something else that might shock you is that I’m dating someone. He’s younger than me and studying math and physics. His name is tichard

The way you called my name so lightly With that smile in your eyes My thoughts polluted by your touches And not of our goodbyes As we hide our feelings behind glass And let our gazes intertwine We know it’s not the wrong person But it is simply the wrong time So a e can hold on to our friendship As you hold on to my hands And play our thinly veiled confessions Off as jokes between friends For this fleeting love, could not last As long as our friendship would be So I’ll be wishing you love and joy; Even if it’s not with me

Letting you go
red was the blood, like blossoms in July orange tinted lips, the ones that told me good bye yellow was the stairwell, the last place you went green was your text, the last text you sent blue were your tears, shimmering like gold purple was your face as your body lay cold white were the lilies, for which you were named white were the lilies, the ones I lay on your grave.

Colours of Mortality
with blood racing to my head my heart pounding through my chest galvanized by the elusive feeling of first love lingering with the shadows of impending doom I mumbled the words that resonates with every ounce of my being so deeply that all the other words I've ever said seemed like a lie as though these words were my salvation and all I wish to be "I love you"

confession
i knew i was in the wrong to love a man who has eyes for someone else but i lied to myself when he whispered sweet nothings in my ear and made myself believe that i wasn't the other girl i told myself he loved me more that she probably didn't love him anyways, not as much as i did but i knew i was the reason for her tears when she loved him too much to leave even though there was another girl i only wanted him to be happy and i thought i could love him enough for the both of us but i knew that his happiness was not with me because i was only the other girl

the other girl
dying for someone cannot be a testament of love if leaving someone can be called love then we are but sadists suffering from delusions of grandeur if you loved me enough to leave me then perhaps you never loved at all

there is no love in death
I woke up this morning, and found tears rolling down my cheek. Like the rain on a sunny day I wondered why they fell. Were they of joy at seeing you once more or sorrow that you will be gone again tomorrow. Is it your absence or your presence that causes me such heartache

the reason that I cry
you called me selfish for leaving the one who had already abandoned me but I will not apologize for leaving someone who was never there you just hate me for hurting you the same way you hurt me

selfish
you say it was never love now that it is gone must you call it something else simply because it is no longer there?

absence of love
in the pinnacle of my dreams it seemed I could love you enough for the both of us
