detachment is key to a life full of coping. i love, yes, i love hard and full. i love with the parts of me i normally have numbed and dulled. but my heart is still wired to my brain. no decisions go unchecked or overthought. no love goes without pain. i don’t charm others with the intent to harm. it always feels like the right play, until i’m, again, stuck in-between my heart and my brain. fight or flight, that’s the game, no attachment, no endearment, no loss of anything. i hope one day someone comes along and cuts my string. i hope i can love without second thoughts, and think without worrying about my love for them getting in the way. i hope they see the side of me i know is buried. i hope they can love me for me.
