And truly, it is an unnerving feeling to be both absolutely infuriated and completely, utterly heartbroken.

"Love you, see you Monday" You immediately came back after your response in our emotion-charged talk and told me this. My immediate reaction upon reading this simple line was to laugh (out of shock and happiness, of course), but it was immediately followed by unforeseen cying - no, sobbing - because you finally made it crystal clear. I knew you cared about me. They've been trying to convince me you don't, but I knew better. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I always saw stars in your eyes, but now.. my God, they're even brighter. They're so much brighter.

Sure, I can say whatever I want behind a phone screen and you'll never know otherwise. But if you told me to look you in the eyes and sincerely say I didn't love you still, I couldn't do it.

Not a single demand, expectation, conjuncture, influence will keep me from living for me and living out the hopes, dreams, and light that I have suppressed for so long at the request of others around me.

Shocking, really, how quickly things can change, largely due to this new burning and gleaming confidence. I'm like a river - free, flowing, and coursing, and nothing will ever confine me again.

You've always tried to keep me concealed, as if I was a weapon of sorts. A weapon that could threaten everything you've built from the ground up. I've never seen myself as dangerous. I've never seen myself as needing to be handled with extreme caution, lest you accidentally shoot yourself in the foot. Why is it that you see me as a loaded gun, love? I'm not capable of such violence. You've always been reckless when it came to me. Why the sudden hesitation?
