Passionately Lost

“Just because your past has been damaged doesn’t mean your future has to be worthless.”

“I’m frequently visited by three spirits at night, the ghost of i fucked up, the ghost of i’m currently fucking up and the ghost of i’m probably going to fuck up in the future.”

“I hope one day we can forgive each other for not being what we wanted each other to be”

“Yes, I deserve a spring – I owe nobody nothing.”

If we will ever come to a point where goodbye is inevitable, I will not ask you to teach me how to forget. Instead, I will ask you to show me how to remember. We made so many beautiful memories together, it's a shame to erase them all just because we have to part, and can no longer go back to the beginning to fall in love again. No, no matter how much it will hurt, I won't ask you to teach me how to forget. I will walk all the paths we've trodden and remember how your laughter sounded, how your fingers curled around mine, how your hair smelled under the sun, how your lips tasted. I will remember every bit of you, so when I am finally ready to let go, I can let all of you go the way I've let all the kites fly away when I was young and life was innocent and gentle and kind.

I've learned that every feeling will pass if you give it time. And if you learn to deal with your feelings, they'll pass by faster each time. So don't rush to cover them up by medicating them. You've got to deal with them.
