Dare to l*ve

I want to haunt you—not out of anger,

but because your silence

turned me feral.

A ghost at your doorstep

felt closer

than the living thing

you abandoned.

“The way they leave tells you everything.”

One day,

I didn’t think of you.

It startled me.

Not because the love was gone,

but because the pain

finally loosened its grip.

[shegotawayididnot]

In the hush between breaths, I heard my own voice say,

“I miss her” — and it was the truest thing in the room.

[seaphine]

I wasn’t meant to date around I was meant to pour my entire soul into one person for a lifetime.

For one sweet moment

you fit perfectly in my hands.

Beautiful.

Already leaving.

I only felt the thorns

as you slipped from my grasp.

Not enough to stop you.

Enough to feel.

You left without damage; I didn’t.

I stood there bleeding,

learning what it costs

to admire something

that doesn't want to be held.

[shegotawayididnot]

You stayed beautiful.

I stayed.

That’s all.

[shegotawayididnot]

You left with certainty.

I stayed with questions.

And the worst part

is not that you’re gone -

it’s that I still love you

inside a story

I was written out of.

I hope some part of you feels the way I reach for you in the dark
