Are You Ok? (OC)

[rendzina]

over coffee with my mom this morning: “sometimes we hesitate to invite people into our life because we feel like our space isn’t good enough yet. things are a little messy, or our place settings don’t match, or our situation isn’t quite what we want it to be. don’t let that stop you. invite people in anyway.”

“I am trying to make every moment count, without throwing myself all over the place, without tearing myself apart. I am trying to make sense of the chaos inside of me, without breaking myself, without killing myself at the end of the day.”

““I guess this is it, huh?” He held me tighter into him and I suddenly knew the answer. We were over, and there wasn’t anything he or I could do about it. All I could do was memorize the touch of his body and warmth of his breath before it was all gone. That was always the thing you started to miss first, the comfort of being around the other person. So we laid there as long as we could, both knowing that we’d always miss the other.”

“I had to realize that maybe it had nothing to do with me. And maybe it had nothing to do with him either. I mean sure- maybe he could have loved me a little harder, or maybe I could have not overreacted as often as I did. But just because we didn’t work out didn’t mean he wasn’t a good person. He was an incredible person, and our time was beautiful while it lasted.”

“Really. It’s okay/ I’m happy if you are,” she says, finally meeting his eyes for the first time in what feels like forever. 

She can tell he doubts her, and it almost comes spilling out. Every thought, dream, feeling she’s ever had for him, but she knows that she doesn’t need to say it: he knows. He always has and just chose to ignore it. 

Instead she tilts her head to the ceiling and laughs sardonically before standing up and walking towards the door. Pausing before the exit, she finally manages to choke out the only words that could ever break both of their hearts at the same time:

“After all, my feelings never mattered anyway.”

I remember that night, when your tears couldn’t stop flowing. You just couldn’t understand why she couldn’t see you the way you wanted or how to catch her attention as more than a friend.

So I sat there. I sat there quietly while you cried over her on my shoulder, fulfilling the promise that I would always be your friend above everything else.

You just couldn’t see it was breaking my heart.

“And for just that moment, I thought you felt it too.”

— And then she walked in the room

[wordsicouldnotspeak]

“You were so focused on what she was doing to you, you missed that you were doing the same thing to me”

— And I let you just to have your attention

[wordsicouldnotspeak]

““I can’t keep watching you run back to her, when I know I’m just going to be the one picking up the pieces.””

“Never underestimate the power of friends who can make you laugh when you don’t even feel like smiling”
