What does it mean if you’ve thought about a person every day since you met

"Sometimes you have to get as far away as possible to realize why you stayed as long as you did and how much you miss it will tell you whether or not it was worth it."

"I thought you were a good person but you messed up and you used me and you still don’t remember when my birthday is and you never even knew my middle name. And you tricked me into thinking you wanted the same things as me and you acted like you cared about what I was doing on the weekends and how my sister’s classes were but I don’t think you really cared about anything at all. And there’s a lot I should have said to you but the only thing I want you to know now is that none of that was okay but I am."

"Being able to move on is such an underrated characteristic. Like everyone wants courage and confidence and intelligence and beauty. But if you think about it, none of us need any of those. But all of us get met with setbacks that we need to get past. We get hurt and we lose jobs and we go through break ups and our pets die. And we’re still expected to do things the next day- like workout or cook or pick our sisters up from school. The responsibilities don’t realize that part of our world just came crashing down, they don’t go away just because we feel like we can’t do them anymore. But moving on is empowering. It’s being able to continue to be ourselves without being saddened or torn apart by something negative that happened to us and that doesn’t even sound like an accomplishment but, my God, it is."

"I wish I could write angry, ‘moving on’ words that scream ‘fuck you’ into the wind
I wish I could be angry
I wish I could fight, call my sense back to me and listen to the words I give to others
I wish I had rage flowing through my blood instead of this bittersweet sadness rotting at my boness"

Anonymous: How do I let go of someone I love?

blossomfully:

You open your arms, you say to them, ‘here we are now, here we go, I’m setting you free’.

Make no mistake this is as much about you as it is about them.

You take a deep breath, you smile, and you walk away.

It’s okay if tomorrow you feel like a part of you has been surgically removed with an infected instrument; we have antibiotics nowadays. It’s alright to miss what you had. But the point is you have to look to the future, you can’t be forever stuck in the past.

Today is gloomy, tomorrow may well be bright. Today your arms feel empty; give it a dozen cycles of the moon; they’ll feel full again.

Please, excuse my shadow. I can’t
stop leaving. I don’t know how
to name what I don’t know

well enough to render
in a single sitting. Every poem
about us seems an impossible labor,

like forgetting the face
of the sea, or trying to find
a more perfect name for water.

— Joshua Bennett, from “Still Life With Little Brother,” The Sobbing School
