Love always calls us out of brokenness into something better
“ I remember when I would wake up next to you and wish that time would stop.”
The sound of a child jumping on a trampoline.
The crickets chirping in the night.
Rosebud sheets. Pretty in pink.
Soft music wafting in the air.
Scent of lilies blooming on the altar.
The comforting smell of your tshirt.
The creak from the wooden step.
You.

Grief
And I miss you every single day.
There’s a you shaped space in my heart and I don’t know what to do to fill it up.
I think of all the little things you’d do every day and I ache to see that silly face of yours again.
Where does all the love I have for you go now?
Never felt my heart break quite like this before.
It’s so crazy because it feels like ages ago and yet time has barely passed since you’ve gone.
The days go by and life seemingly moves on
Still, each passing day feels wrong because you’re not around to pass it with me.
I’m not me anymore, cos me always had you.
A piece of my heart left us today.
And it hurts like hell.
Most gut punching heart wrenching news.
Trying to keep it together but I’m falling apart.
I wanna turn back time tell you I’m wrong
Don’t wanna waste my nights singing sad songs
I’ll spend a lifetime wishing I’d stayed
But it’s a little too late to tell you that, babe.
How could I let you fall through my hands?
I should’ve held you when I had the chance
I’ll spend a lifetime wishing I’d stayed
But it’s a little too late to tell you that, babe.
“it’s a little bit of an ick of mine when i hear people describe themselves as “laid back” or “chill”.. like, of course you are. we all are when things are going well for us.
what are you like when you’re stripped of your creature comforts? what are you like when you’re uncomfortable? when things arent going well? that’s where the realest you lives. everyone is cool when they’re good. what are you like when shit sucks?”

People think that intimacy is about sex. But intimacy is about truth. When you realize you can tell someone your truth, when you can show yourself to them, when you stand in front of them bare and their response is “you’re safe with me”
-that’s intimacy.
You still make me nervous when you walk in the room
Them butterflies they come alive when I’m next to you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
And I know you always had to prove yourself.
But never to me. You’ve always shined brighter than anyone else.
As you are.
And if my wishes came true
It would’ve been you
In my defense, I have none
For never leaving well enough alone
But it would’ve been fun
If you would’ve been the one
I have this dream you’re doing cool shit
Having adventures on your own
You meet some woman on the internet and take her home
We never painted by the numbers, baby
But we were making it count
You know the greatest loves of all time are over now
To the Water Under the Bridge.
I finally see it now. You already said your final goodbye 4 years ago…
Took me awhile but I think I finally caught up.
“ I’ve been lucky enough so far in life to have shared a real, deep connection with someone who, for lack of a better word, felt like a soul mate.
I know it’s depth because I can still feel that connection, when I choose to look there.
I’ve found that holding gratitude for the one who taught me what love is and showed me a thing or two helps me honour what they gave me.”

It’s probably for the best.
I’ll never understand why he keeps me at arms length.
But all I want is to know that he’s getting on well with life. And with that, I am satisfied.
En vain le destin nous sépare
Destiny separates, but inclination unites us.
