She found it hard to express her love with words but I found it in the subtle little things, the forehead kisses, the good morning messages & the hugs that seem to last an eternity!

Not everyone can articulate how they feel but pay attention and their actions will surely show you…

WHEN THE NIGHT IS CREEPING INTO MORNING AND YOU’RE STILL AWAKE STARING AT THE CEILING, I HOPE YOU REMEMBER JUST HOW HIGH YOU CAN FLY, JUST HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS CRAZY THING CALLED LIFE CAN BE.

WHEN THE DARK IS TURNING INTO LIGHT AND YOU HAVE TO FACE ANOTHER DAY, I HOPE YOU ARE BRAVE, I HOPE YOU REMEMBER THAT THIS TOO SHALL PASS, JUST LIKE IT DID YESTERDAY AND THE DAY BEFORE LAST.

SOON ENOUGH ONCE AGAIN YOU’LL FEEL THAT SPARK, SOON ENOUGH YOU’LL FEEL ALIVE ONCE MORE, YOU KNOW IT’S A BATTLE, YOU KNOW IT’S ALWAYS DARKEST JUST BEFORE THE DAWN…

SHE’S A DAMSEL IN DISTRESS,

BUT BROTHER YOU’RE NOT A KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR,

STILL YOU’LL TRY TO SAVE HER AND LOSE YOURSELF ALONG THE WAY,

IT’S A LONG ROAD ONCE THE COLOUR FADES, YOUR LIFE NOW LOST IN BLACK AND GREY,

SHE’S GONE NOW, YEP SHE’S ON HER WAY STILL THE PAIN REMAINS,

EVERYDAY HARDER THAN THE ONE BEFORE, FUCK I DON’T KNOW IF I CAN DO THIS ANYMORE

I tried to save you and lost myself along the way

Tell me all the fucked up things you’ve ever done and let me adore you all the same anyway!

AND IT WAS AS IF FOR ONE NIGHT, WE TRAVELED BACK IN TIME,

YES, IT FELT JUST LIKE BEFORE, YOUR ARMS AROUND ME, YOUR HANDS IN MINE,

THE FUNNY THING ABOUT NOSTALGIA IS, IT IS OFTEN JUST A LIE,

NOW YOU’RE GONE AGAIN AND I’M HURTING INSIDE,

I KNOW WHAT I MUST DO, BECAUSE I CAN’T RISK ANOTHER HELLO THAT’S FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER GOODBYE,

IT’S NOT WHAT I WANT BUT RATHER WHAT I NEED, I HOPE YOU KNOW YOU MEANT EVERYTHING TO ME,

GOOD LUCK OUT THERE, I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN, BUT ONLY IN MY DREAMS, ANOTHER FLEETING MOMENT BEFORE YOU DISAPPEAR

The 30th

6 months to the day but it feels like just yesterday,

6 months to the day but here I am still in pain,

I’ve often thought about this day and all the things I would like to say,

But tonight as you stood there finally right in front of me,

I looked for words but they evaded me, I was completely paralysed then again that always happened every time your eyes met mine,

A brief moment It faded way too fast, I wish I could go back in time and tell you so many things and that you’ve never once left my mind...

-M.B

[ahopelessromanticlife]

And perhaps the most painful love stories are the “almost lovers” the “never were”,

Knowing your story ended before it ever actually really started,

Dwelling on the possibilities that for a fleeting moment seemed endless,

Knowing that you didn’t get the chance to become what you should have been together,

These hurt the most because too often we look back lost in nostalgia and ask “what could have been”

The “almost lovers” are a heavy burden at 3am when our souls are restless,

The “never were” lovers haunt our overthinking minds because they’ll always feel like missing chapters in an unfinished book.

M.B

I too often spend my time, revisiting memories most wouldn’t even recall, fleeting moments that to you would seem insignificant and small,

For the little moments I probably care too much, too often I am lost in the nostalgia, too often I am stuck replaying them all,

I care too much, I feel too deeply, perhaps I’m a burden? At times I know I’m quite needy but with her I have purpose and I have meaning,

Oh yes I’m always lost in little moments I have trouble deleting, for she is the only one that keeps me dreaming.

[ahopelessromanticlife]

She is every song I sing, she is every poem I write, I just need her to stay by my side,

She turned my black into colour, my pain into love, whatever’s on my mind she’s never too far away

When I was at my lowest and a mess, you didn’t call, no you didn’t even text,

When I was lost and so alone, you didn’t care, no all of a sudden I was blocked on your phone,

When I was broken and wishing I was dead, you ignored me and left me stuck on read,

You didn’t think of the dread, no you didn’t care how you blanked me and left me lost in despair,

Baby, I love you, I always will but you were never there, no you didn’t give a fuck, like you said you would...

- M.B

Baby it’s 3am, maybe I don’t need a lover, maybe I just need a friend,

Maybe I just need someone to remind me that this shouldn’t be where it has to end,

Truth be told I haven’t felt that alive in 4 months, since I was last lost in your eyes,

You’re next to me every night but when I wake up you’re nowhere to be found,

I can still hear your voice, oh what a heaveningly sound,

You still visit me in my dreams, my god! you’re still the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen,

Baby I can’t seem get you off my mind, I wonder if you ever think of you and I, because for me it happens all the fucking time...

-M.B

[ahopelessromanticlife]

Do you ever think back, do I ever cross your mind? I know you probably don’t think about me much anymore, maybe only a little, maybe not even at all?

I can only hope sometimes you think back and laugh at some of the bright moments we shared. The silly little jokes we had, the small, simple nothings that now haunt me every single day.

I hope you haven’t deleted me completely from your mind and memory. Baby It’s okay if I was only a small chapter in your story, but I want you to know, you are my very favourite part when I flip back through the pages.

No matter where life takes me now, I’ll carry a piece of you and everything that made me fly. I know, I need to let you go and continue writing my own story, but the pages just seem empty and boring without you scattered across them.

They told me “out of sight, out of mind” but I don’t know about that because it’s been a couple months now and I still think about you all the damn time. Oh yes, I do hope every once in a while you look back on the chapter of us and it makes you smile.

My favourite chapter is the one that has you scattered all across the pages, I miss you...

-M.B

[ahopelessromanticlife]

I TRIED MY BEST TO SEPARATE MYSELF FROM THE BURDEN OF HOLDING ON TO YOU,

BUT NO MATTER WHERE I GO OR WHAT I DO, I STILL ALWAYS MANAGE TO FIND PIECES OF YOU,

IT’S AS IF YOU NEVER LEFT, IT’S AS IF YOU’RE STILL RIGHT HERE BY MY SIDE,

BABY GIRL I LOVE YOU, BUT YOU LEFT ME ALONE AND THE VOID THAT IS YOU MAKES ME SO DEEPLY BLUE,

I MISS YOUR SMILE, I MISS THOSE EYES AND YEP THAT DAMN BEHIND,

YOUR EMBRACE FELT LIKE HOME, YOUR TOUCH MADE ME FLY, I REPLAY EVERY MOMENT OF US, SOMETIMES I’M HAPPY, SOMETIMES IT MAKES ME WANT TO DIE...

-M.B

[ahopelessromanticlife]

I write messages that will never be read,

I talk to you every single day but only in my head,

I long for every part of you again and again,

i can’t seem to move on, think I’m better off dead...

- M.B

I will never stop thinking about you or wishing you nothing but the very best, I truly hope our paths will cross again someday, even if it’s years from now, just for a cup of coffee or your favourite sushi, but if it’s not destined to be and if I shall never see that blinding smile or look into those soulful eyes again, thank you for everything!

I hope you get every single thing I wanted to give you out of life. I truly hope you succeed in every aspect! Our time together meant the world to me and you will always be so very special to me. I will carry a piece of you with me wherever I go, no matter how long passes by! You are forever engrained into my soul!

Every single thing I said to you is true and I will never, ever forget how you made me fly! You will forever be my 3am thoughts when my soul is restless and I will pray that you found the happiness you deserve. It breaks me but I know It’s time now to say goodbye and good luck my love....

I think I found the closure I was looking for! Goodbye and goodluck my love
