I almost said I love you…I rewatch your videos, reread the texts, scroll through pictures and try to find a glimpse of you…I almost said I love you, I really was falling in love

Right when I think I’m getting over you, I see your name pop up on my screen a few times and all of a sudden, I can’t stop myself from missing you. Wishing you would call, longing to hear your voice. I can’t help to say that I’ve been falling in love with you
I still miss you.
Life is too short to not take a chance
And too long to live in pain
I balance a fine line of fear when making the right choices
I fear that love has cost me a lot when it didn’t have to
Of course there’s a part to it.
I now think to myself, am I making the right choices? How much living is living? Do I do what I did at 20 and risk it?
I’m scared but not of loving you
Scared of not loving me
I accept you for who you are rather than what I want you to be
I walk away because choosing to live in agony is beyond me
I walk away though, with a heart, that is mourning, with a brain that battles the heart
I walk away with everything that it could be
Of the images of me, walking down the aisle
Our kids, running to you after work
Us having water balloon fights
Traveling the world
Getting older
Holding hands
The first and the last kiss
But us
And everything it could’ve been
My wishful thinking at 2am sounds like me pleading with God
Fighting the angel and the devil on my shoulders
Who debate our faith
Truthfully, it is over
But my heart misses you, it weeps at the past and moments we shared..how close forever was to us
While my heart pleads for your role in my life
My head reminds me of the evident, you left and as much as I want you to change
That is just wishful thinking, a man who really wanted me would
My head debates about wanting you to change for your sake and selfishly for mine, it says we shouldn’t change the people we like; rather accept them for who they are
But we could be so great together
Great if you stood by your morals and values, if you create boundaries, if you didn’t gaslight me about sacrificing your time with your friend, if you put down the bottle, great, if you followed your own rhythm of your heart, great, If you’d try
I talk to God and realize you are aware of the changes that need to be made. That you aren’t quite ready. I talk to God and ask if it’s really you for me, I ask if you need time, I ask for a peace of mind, for my anxiety to calm, for my mind to settle, to refocus on my life
But I think of you
And I miss you
Hearing your voice and your laughter, the random calls filled with boat talk and words I don’t understand.
I ask God, to get me through this and calm my heart. To lead me where my heart is cherished, where the effort is seen, where persistence meets the death of pride and he knocks at my door with flowers in his hands, and he says “I miss you. I am working on making myself better, for me, for you, for our future kids, for our family.”
But that is just wishful thinking
Baby come back
It’s taking everything in me….
I never meant anything to him
Everything he did proved it
Years down the drain
He is fine, he is happy as always
and I am heartbroken,
He destroyed something so deeply in me
Tanto dolor que tengo
Que quiero gritar
Me cuesta respirar
Cual es el camino
Será la soledad
Me estoy hogando
En este mar
Pidiendo le socorro
A las olas
A ver si se lleva
Esto lo que siento
My heart is big enough, accepting enough
Full of emotions
I always end up being the one with these huge feelings, that aren’t quite reciprocated back
I feel too much
Im into you, more than you’ll ever be into me
How am I so insignificant in everybody’s life??
How do I change that??
Turn back time and ask God, the what about my lives
The meaning behind the pain and isolation
The reason why I am 2nd best to everyone
Why no own utters my name solely in the light and in the dark
Why I am to deal with things alone
Why I was born alone, be alone and die alone
From start to finish, conception to death
I am your daughter, even in pain, I will say your name
Even if the ones around me don’t love me, the way I do them
Even if I’m not treated the same
Even if I’m an after thought in the wind
A second choice
I am your daughter, in pain, questioning life and the inner workings of my life but not my love for you, not my loyalty to you, not my faith in you
He asked me when I fell in love with him and I knew it sounded dramatic to say the moment I saw him, so I told him this story of my grandma who had Alzheimer's- she forgot her name and the words for fruit and food, she forgot her address and how to use the washroom, all her life lost to the disease. The only thing she remembered was her son's name and when that began to fade, the one thing she always remembered was that she loved him, even in illness, even in insanity. She saw this 6 foot 2 man with a scrubby beard and she didn't know him but she said she trusted him, she asked him to hold her hand when she died. When does memory end and love begin? All I know is- she loved him before she remembered him.
-Ritika Jyala, excerpt from The world is a sphere of ice and our hands are made of fire
I write letters of love with your name on it
I speak pure and play with innocent thoughts in my head
I figure out that you and I are mystical
Two peas in a pod
A grand love
That the stars align perfectly for us
And if we let it, if we so patiently work on us
Continue to speak love
To hold each other tenderly
A long love in life will speak into fruition
And you and I will continue to make forever into a reality
I’ve never been so sure of anyone before
But I am 110% undoubtedly sure, undoubtedly yours
Forever
This feels like the beginning of forever
“Relationships are so much healthier when the goal is to experience life together and not to try to make the person into who you want them to be or to make them do what you want them to do.”
