let me tell you this

‘Don’t worry yourself too much about me. I’ll be fine. I have to run, babe. Only 9 more days!’

Marry someone you want to annoy for the rest of your life

One day, you’re 18 and the boy you fell for in high school breaks your heart. One day, you’re 25 and the boy who broke your heart has been long gone and his name is just another name among the bunch of “lovers that went wrong”. Among the “Should’ve beens” and “Would’ve beens”. So there it is. Be 18. Wear your heart on your sleeve. Give your number to a stranger on the train who sparked a conversation with you about the weather or whether your Thursday night was vacant. Wear your heart on your sleeve. Love defiantly. Forgot what heartbreaks feels like, just remember how you wrote good poetry with mascara infused tears leaving track-marks along your cheekbones. Let boys look at you, you are a girl of beauty after all. Wear a new shade of lipstick that begs the attention. Run in the morning, understand you are free. Wear your heart on your sleeve. And by all means, be 18. One day, you’ll be 25 and miss the petty heartbreaks of being 18.

I don’t regret you but sometimes I wish I had walked away at the start and left things at hello.

I hope one day, I cross your mind. I hope you turn on the radio and you hear an old song that I showed you. I hope you’re walking down the street and someone’s wearing a blue dress, just like the one I did, on our very first date. I hope you smell my perfume, off another girl when you pass by her in the grocery store. I don’t know when it’ll be but when it does, I hope it hits you like a ton of fucking bricks. I hope you stop whatever it is you’re doing, and you pull out your phone. I hope you start to type about how you miss me and the way I would make you my first priority. I hope you write about how I would bring you flowers just to see you smile, or how I would stay up all night with you on the phone, when you were upset about the stupidest little things. I hope you remember all the little things I did and how much I went out of my way to make sure you were always okay. I hope when you’re sitting wherever you are and you’re about to hit send, you erase it. I hope that in that moment when you’re at your weakest, you realize that I’m at my strongest. And I no longer give a damn about how you think or what you feel. I hope it breaks you like you once broke me.

I knew I loved you more.
