the first year went by just like that,

a sudden scare then cut us in half,

deceit and spite was all i felt,

but love was present in what i held.

three months then on of no contact,

no texts,

no calls,

no notifications,

those months were a blessing and yet a curse,

because i missed you a lot and i knew i was never enough,

with the courage to get lost back then,

i did find myself in the end.

now five months and fifteen days later,

we reconnected,

we poured our hearts out to each other and kept confessing on how much we missed each other,

this was never just a fling,

it’s beginning to bloom as we approach spring.

i asked “do you love me?”

you replied “i never lie.”

it is now out in the open,

i couldn’t help grinning from ear to ear,

and i will cherish our bond for as long as it can last…

i love you,

you love me too.

stop.

for the sake of your sanity,

for the sake of your heart,

stop.

you are not thinking this through,

you are only fooled by the sweet memories of the past,

for i know how it feels like.

you do not miss this person,

you do not miss them at all,

you only miss the feeling of being loved,

and the reason you miss them is because they were there to provide it for you.

scratch those exchange in glances,

those little smirks,

those handheld moments and those little knowing nods that only the both of you could understand.

yes, it was real but you are forgetting,

that you both came to an end.

do not forget why,

and remember why it made you cry,

so the next time you find yourself hovering your thumbs over the keyboard,

thinking about what to say to your past lover,

please reflect and ask yourself,

is it worth it?

after all that pain and misery they have brought unto you?

in the end,

you have to

stop.

— S.Z. , “Stop”.
