Stricken with, like fate.
Idolizing. Idealizing.
What makes it so?
Curiosity to obsession.
Obsession to love?
What is love?
Sought after, like gold.
Idolizing me.
Yet none to succeed but for a fleeting moment.
I envy those with their beloveds.
Even those whom have suffered loss, but still love.
Emptiness.
Craving the “good” feelings.
Like fantasies. Wanting someone who isn’t real.
Never to give wounds time to heal.
To invalidate, or embrace?
If I don’t know what is real
And if I don’t know who I am,
Do I follow my heart?
Or is naivety my wander?
What I seek is never mine to keep.
All stories are read, not written.
Not written by me.

Not written by me.
Spur of the moment feelings of brokenness.
