To me,
I love you so much. I am so proud of you. Through all the darkest moments and heaviest days, you pushed through it and tried your hardest not to self abandon in the process. With every highs and lows came with a lot of perseverance and gentleness and patience. I know these did not come easy, even the battles that forced you to come out of your comfort cycles to rip the bandage off.
I love you for your strength, your courage, your compassionate heart and your sweet soul. Your vibrancy shines through remarkably bright through the greyest of fogs.
I love you for your intelligence, your maturity to want to be the bigger person, your tenacity to say things will be okay even after feeling all the pain. Your dedication to try no matter what. I love you for you.
Loneliness.
Something that I have not dealt with for a long time.
I see its silhouette wherever i go, almost everyday.
In my friendsā happiness that i couldnāt help but compare, in familiar places & memories, in thoughts of him, in this festive season.
The discomfort makes me want to do everything but sit still, and i am trying to be honest and true to myself with this old stranger.
Maybe i thought i had outgrown this feeling, so it has felt uncomfortable to have to reconcile with it again.
In the meantime, while getting acquainted with this loneliness again, i am slowly getting acquainted to my self as well.
Life after you :
I feel happier
I feel much lighter
I feel like i can breathe again
I feel more and more comfortable being in my own zone and space again
I feel like iām coming back home to myself again
Maybe this time with a renewed sense of self
I just feelā¦. More centered perhaps.
Life after you is starting to feel so much better.
Not having to put myself through such a chaotic and confusing and painful space unknowingly.
I feel like i can celebrate myself again
And embrace every aspect of me as much as i could.
I feel i can be me again
Me without you.
Of fresh new beginnings ;
New space, new lifestyle, new mindset, new experiences & new energies.
A rebranding of a new me.
Manifesting new opportunities, new miracles, and new changes.
Showing up for myself :
Forgiving myself for not knowing what I wanted, for not knowing what to look out for and for not knowing better.
Forgiving myself in showing up in ways that i felt was right at that point in time, for choosing things that I felt was right.
It did felt right, and that was why the pain of those memories are felt right now.
Because it meant something, but the values no longer align to my reality today.
It was not for nothing, it was for something; as short-lived and devastating as it had been, it had fulfilled a part of my soul and my heart at that point in time.
And now that I no longer need it, it does feel gut wrenching feeling like everything is breaking apart, maybe it is meant to be broken down.
Just as I am grieving lost memories, I am also grieving the old me.
And that is okay, changes are meant to be uncomfortable.
But at the end of the day, I chose to open my heart out again, I chose to want to experience again, after locking myself up for years. I chose to want to try again, as daunting & scary as that has been.
It may still be so, but I showed up for myself the best way I knew back then.
Looking back at everything now, a part of me hurts to even think of life with him. Not in the way of a yearning ache, but it pains me to think of being back in that state of confusion and denial. I donāt yearn to go back to the way things were, knowing that it is my hope and the potential of the good moments that kept it alive.
Maybe i am becoming disillusioned, but all i see is hurt and sadness and pain whenever i think about him. It feels like there is nothing alive anymore, everything is dying out. And perhaps, my feelings too, are slowly turning dead and gone.
Iām trying to sit with this profound sadness that I hold everyday, maybe this is what letting go is; sadness & liberation. Or maybe I have finally allowed myself to feel completely, and it fucking hurts.
And maybe, I have allowed myself to feel the full, raw emotional wounds and i no longer feel the need to feel like that again.
But it feels good, not wanting to dwell on the āwhat ifsā with him.
I think iām slowly losing feelings for you.
Sadness comes in gentle, almost still streams.
Mourning a beautiful place attached to painful emotions.
Grieving the pain that was ruthlessly dealt upon.
The photos may probably hurt still, so I donāt want to hurt any more.
Waking up feels easier without the weight of the ghost of you sleeping beside crashing down on me, and I hope to keep it up.
Every night I try to go to sleep thinking and dreaming of my better future instead, one where I truly feel happier & much more fulfilled.
I allowed myself to remove traces of you in messages & music for now, because I deserve to live a life full of me and less and less of you right now.
But the sadness persists, and I allow them in to teach me to be human again.
I figured that the both of us are trying to move on from each other⦠there will still be lingering feelings and yearning, but we understood that staying in each otherās lives would only trigger more pain & emotional wounds within each other. It would not outlast the happiness & warmth that we grew to have for each other.
It does feel easier to keep you at a distance, slowly processing my feelings for you and learning to let you go.
I canāt wait for the new experiences I am going to create, the places I am going to take myself to and the new joys & wonder I can bring to myself.
This uncomfortable feeling right now, shall pass.
Slowly but surely finding my glow & my colour back again āØ
I may not be able to recognise it right now, but i am finally free.
Liberated from any more stress, anxiety, hurt, sadness, confusion, anger.
Liberated from his inconsistencies, his negativity & selfishness.
Liberated from suppressing how i really am and feel.
My truth has released me.
Though it still feels bleak, lonely, and dark, i hope i could feel that i am in a much better place now than where i was.
I hope i see beauty again, in the world and in myself.
I hope i could go out and celebrate my life just as how i set out to do this entire year.
I hope i would dare to ask for things that i want for myself, and be unapologetically me again.
