Letting You Go

 

I know it always hurts,
when everything about you
comes crashing back into my life.
But you know what?
My heart still won’t change,
all my love, all my feelings for you.

You said you didn’t want to be the bad guy,
so you built walls, set boundaries.
Yet I feel like I pushed you
to meet me once more.
And when we did,
I knew—you weren’t the same
as the one I met last December.

But my heart still feels the same.
Thank you, for giving me closure,
for always leaving me with the best goodbyes.
Yet I still can’t control
how I feel for you.

Now, I’m trying,
truly, to let you go.
Even when I hear Cry
by Cigarettes After Sex,
I secretly wish
you’d wish the same.

I know it’s impossible.
Now, I just need to trust love again,
to love myself more,
to let you go—
the right way. <3

Not Even Stay

  Today, I just finished two seasons of  Ginny & Georgia. and I don’t know, sometimes I feel like Ginny, sometimes I feel like Georgia. like a daughter, unseen, misunderstood, or a young mom, fighting silent battles just to protect the ones she loves. but you know what? at least Ginny had Marcus and Hunter. Hunter, who truly loved her. and Marcus, who knew her, stayed with her, saw the wreckage and still chose to stay. there was this scene, Ginny told Marcus she couldn't trust anyone, because Georgia, her own mother, once warned her: "Don’t trust anyone. Especially a man." but Marcus, broken in his own ways, held space for her pain, and chose not to walk away. and that’s the tragedy, isn’t it? I don’t have a Marcus or a Hunter. or even a Georgia. each day I wake up, facing everything alone, learning not to rely on anyone, not because I want to, but because every time I try to show who I really am, every time I open up even just a little, they all leave. Not even stay.

Saturn

  one night, the sky turned gold, and silence felt like gravity, soft, invisible, inescapable. it told me; this too is part of becoming. i used to think home had walls. now I know it’s what lingers, like rings around a quiet planet. so I carry Saturn in my skin, not to escape, but to stay grounded while I learn how to float.

the kind of luck

  not again, please.. not again. every time I watch a love story unfold, on screen, in ink, in the glow of moving frames, beyond the moral stitched between scenes, i wonder. how is it that every girl there is a universe of perfection? each one already paired with a man who speaks her storms, who reads her silence, who waits at the edge of her shadows with a lantern in hand? i mean, not every girl has that kind of luck. the kind where kindness is constant, where someone stays, not because she’s flawless, nobody is, but because he chooses her in every imperfect moment, no matter what comes.
