We were temporary
Momentary
Yet I miss every little thing about you
The good things
The things that made me feel
Safe
Cared for
The look in your eyes like I was the only one
In the morning
The way you would wrap me up
Pull me as close as you could
Make me feel secure
Safe
Your nose against mine
Your kiss on my forehead
Neck
When you thought I was sleeping
Your sweet smile
Not knowing the entire time it was empty
On your behalf
Not listening to those who said
“he’ll never change”
Hearing the words that tore me down
Pushed me away
Feeling weak yet strong
Because I saw more in you
More than you even see in yourself
I am picking up pieces from something
That never was
Picking myself up and learning that sometimes
You care for someone who will never feel the same
But to keep going
It will come and you’ll be appreciated
That it’s okay to feel
I’d rather give it all
Be broken and mending
Continue giving
And for that I’m grateful

the perfect ending is just beginning
as I have said before, and will keep saying until my entire being accepts it
erase anything that does not build you up and help you excel to your most positive self
heartache will happen
you will be disappointed
but do not stay in a place you know you don’t belong
do not devour yourself in hopes of reconciling things beyond repair
demons are real, spiritually and metaphorically, and they are there to attack you at any given moment
fight with everything to love yourself and to cling to things that uplift you and back away from things that hinder you

some days it hits you all over again
and all you can do is breathe and push through
one day at a time.

We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.
