The night fell dark, darker than it should. I know it is over, there is no hope left, but should I text once? Should I try it one last time? That is all I could think of if I should give it another try. Will it be worth it? Or wait, am I too quick? Am I not sure of what I want? Maybe.
Or rather, I am afraid. I’m afraid that my feelings will never be understood. But something makes my heart skip a beat whenever I think of everything we have shared. Everything was lovely until it shattered like a palace of cards. A soft wind blew us apart. Was it just me who felt that way?
Do you spend your time reading and re-reading old text messages exchanged with someone who was once someone you shared so much of yourself with, and now they feel like a stranger? No, you donโt. And yes, I do. I know I shouldnโt. Why waste my time on something that will never be the same again? I wish I could go back in time and never let that time come again. Never let anybody pull my guard down.
Never let anybody even peep in because, in reality, the story repeats itself. People say give yourself a chance; maybe you will see different and positive results. But guess what โpeopleโ โ the results are always the sameโevery single time. Then there comes the point when you want to stop trying to text back. Although it pains not to be around people you love, you still decide to let it go. No matter what it takes, you are fine for some days.
Day 1: Done.
Day 2: Done.
Day 3: Good. [I did not read the old text the entire day]
Day 4: Iโm better. [I did not login to Facebook to stalk]
Day 5: end of any such discussions with friends. You go out. Enjoy.
Day 6: โhi! Good morning.โ
BAM!! And when you think you are through, you receive this text early in the morning.
When everything feels right, this happens, and every memory comes flooding back. But you know what? This doesnโt feel wrong either. Now I prepare myself for another few days of melancholy, where I know I will not be texting or receiving any texts and will be sitting there reading the conversations all by myself.
You donโt feel me. You donโt feel any of it. You are fine, well, and happier in life. That doesnโt mean I am sad in life. I have lovely parents and a crazy and fantastic group of friends around me, but you know something is missing. It all feels a little empty. This shouldnโt have happened so soon if we had seen the amount of time, we had known each other.
But maybe I had begun to live my little infinity there. As if the connection was unbreakable. But it broke. The story ends even before it could have a proper beginning. I was pleased before you, and I know I will be fine after you because I knew you would leave one day. But I guess I was wrong.
They couldnโt judge me all that well. But now I am learning and eventually pulling up my guards again, and now no one will ever get a chance of pulling it down again. I will never give myself a chance again.
