this is what you have come to,
how do you distract a distraction?
its sad, most of your day your thinking about them
but..
do they think about you?
i mean they might think about you once or twice when you text them, if they hear “your” song, or see an old picture
but do they go out of their way to let you know they are thinking of you?
no.
because they arent thinking of you, thats why they havent texted you back.
its okay, not everyone is thinking about everyone else right now
but he said he loved me?

i cant go to my best friends house without passing his house
i cant go on the road to my work without passing his work
i cant even enjoy a steak and not think about how he would have cooked it
he has filled my thoughts 24/7
he knows he hurt me
but maybe not this much

this wasnt supposed to happen.
at first you were an attraction which quickly turned into an infatuation.
my love for you was too much, i pushed you away.

petals fly off the tree with every gust of wind
each petal representing every second passing by that we havent spoken
the tree will soon be bare, no petals left to spare

we are lying on his bed after we just changed the sheets together and enjoy each others presence on this chilly thursday night.
tension in the room is so high that i physically feel the elephant standing on our chests.
it’s dead silent.
he leans over to turn his fan on and i joke about the cold air on the cold night, not realizing i would soon get the cold shoulder.
i close my eyes for a split second and he breaks the ice by saying the ominous phrase “should we talk about it?”
the elephant. the pain. the confusion. he means it all. i freeze.
i flung up, instantly sobering up “you seriously want to right now?”
trauma filled buckets were dumped on both our ends, accumulating pain and confusion.
the whiskey bottle on his left goes flat as each hour passes of our conversation.
with cliche metaphors are being tossed around
despite this tragic conversation, it is also one of the most beautiful things i have ever witnessed
his broken shades reveals the luminescent snow that peacefully sat outside
as he almost breaks down in tears the cast of light shines on him, emphasizing all of his ****** expressions
our conversation held so much joy, fear, confusion, and longing all pressed into one, like a packed snowball
But here we were, just two people being vulnerable about love
the conversation is now over. we fall back on the bed and the cold fan stimulating the empty sound, we look at each other while he puts his arm around me
the intimacy hurt while we both knew it was going to be temporary.
his arm around my chest felt secure but I knew it would soon melt away.
the night ends by him saying “so what now”

i see your face again
but i felt a different sensation
the love i once saw is gone
now all i felt was pain
even though you look the same

seeing an engineer pour his heart onto 10 single spaced pages for his ex really got me thinking…
this morning i woke-up with loads of things to do before i packed up my apartment and said goodbye to the new city that housed me for 6 months.
here i met people who changed my life, i also met men who taught me about what i want in my future lover and exactly what i didn’t want.
everything you can imagine.
this all happened in 6 months and im so overwhelmed in the best way possible.
during this time i met an engineer who then sent me this letter to he wrote to his ex.
i had no idea that my day would be so flipped all because i decided to read this on the metro on the way to my final presentation.
i didn’t even think i would have time to eat let alone process the ending of an era.
but no, a 19 year old engineer wrote the most beautiful thing ive ever read in my life.
tearing up on a metro. this letter simply has consumed my mind all day. and im not even the girl he wrote it for.
this man and i are friends; nothing special.
but this passage made me see something that is making me go crazy.
i didnt know men had the potential to be this emotional.
now i am writing poems because of him.

i thought removing u on social media would work,
but i cant remove u from my memory.
it feels as if my life is limited, i wont do certain things if it will remind me of u in the slightest bit.
i wont eat chicken parm.
i cant go to our favorite bar anymore.
and i hate green button downs.
how can i erase u?
