now when I think of love I want to puke, the thought literally makes me sick to my stomach because I know now what it does to a person how you lose yourself in someone else and then all of sudden you can't breathe anymore without them I am promising myself to never be that stretched again, to give myself a try for once, relying only on my intuition and will to power through life and relationships, never getting too blind to see things as they really are I wanna know what it's like to be so good alone that the earth shatters when I take a step, electricity radiates from my skin and my soul is so loud it shouts through my eyes

Woman
I had forgotten about the way you typed and the emojis you used about the way you didn’t sleep at night and about your corny jokes yesterday you came back not as a lover but as a friend it had been months since we last spoke apparently I wasn’t the only one staring at the ceiling at night thinking about what our love used to be about the way you hurt me about your disappearance into the night yesterday you came back yesterday you came back and i’m not sure what the universe has in mind for our future

you came back
Hours since I last saw you Still, I think about you Your smell put me on the edge, And your taste... I’d drink you all day If only you didn’t keep me up all night My dear Green Tea, Your bitterness will never leave me And your lightness is everything I see

Green
the leaves are falling I look through my window, and wish to see tainted memories but all I can witness is the weather changing you’ve been gone for a long time now and I don’t think about you that often anymore the leaves are getting yellow and I’ve never felt so radiant in a while the leaves are getting brown and I’ve never felt so content in loving my own self your memory has no longer control on who I am on how I act on who I love on how I feel I'm free from the ghost that used to be our love and I’ve never felt lighter I’ve never felt happier

the weather is changing
i keep on meeting new souls, who resonate in mine their laughter stay in my mind, and i never forget the color of their voices yet, i seem to forget that who i am and who i have become isn’t ready to connect with any other their smile touch me but what they feel in their heart, the warmness of their love, doesn’t exist in my body anymore my chest has become a castle, where weeds have grown and walls have been built no matter how beautiful a mind is i just can’t love it yet i need the roots that have taken place in my body to set me free i need to be gentle i need to be patient i need to build myself from the ground and it will take time

i need time
i. cry it out. a lot. until you don’t have any tears left in your body. until the pain makes your body and your emotions numb. until you feel empty inside, lying on the floor, wondering why there’s a stain on the ceiling. ii. sleep. a lot. you’ll reach for their body in your bed to bring them closer, but realize there’s nothing more than the cold mattress and the lonely blanket. it won’t feel warm after a while. it’s alright. iii. go out. a lot. feel the coldness of the night wind on your red cheeks. feel the warmness of the shots of ***** in your throat. being surrounded by friends has never felt so essential. they’re the special ones, the golden ones. keep them close. iv. wait. a lot. nothing will feel right for a while. sometimes everything will feel better. and then it’ll all suddenly come back in waves. it’s alright. it takes time to become whole again.

how to mend a broken heart
flowers are growing inside your lungs, and the umbrella that you’re under does not prevent the rain from falling on you the flowers are getting bigger, making it hard to breathe because what used to be beautiful is now overwhelming the flowers, like the love you feel, is taking all the space in your body; that’s all you can think about and there’s no space left for yourself in your own heart who are you becoming ? the roots are growing in your stomach and your chest is cracking open to let the petals reach the rainy weather leaving you imploding in an awful mess of emptiness the wind is blowing inside your body everything feels cold with this hurricane taking place in your heart you wonder if there’s anything of you left in this pile of skin and flesh and blood where are you ? you thought it would never happen again you thought you’d never let the flowers take that much space in you like they did in the past maybe one day you’ll learn to love another soul without destroying yours in the process
