They say that sometimes
holding on hurts more
than letting go.

I let you go
in hopes of my heart
becoming as okay
as yours when I'm
not with you.

It feels like my
shoulders are lighter
my smile is brighter
and I'm finally whole
again.

Everyday I
break a little more,
and
fall a little harder.

But it all just teaches me how to
stand a little taller,
and
rise a little stronger.

You know your important
to a writer when you find
bits of yourself in their words.

The eraser on my pencil no longer
exists due to my mind deciding
that some things are better off left
unsaid.

The best things in life are often
the things hidden behind
disbelief
and
fear.

I miss out late night talks
where the only thing that
mattered was the echoes
of our laughter.

Sometimes
my only          comfort
is a mind

emptied






of it's thoughts.
