I've built, burned, and rebuilt bridges. Others I have left burning...
| Him: | I have a gf |
| Me: | And I'm still yours?? |
| Him: | I can't help that I love you |
| Me: | And let me guess you can't help, but love her too?? |
| Him: | Yeah |
| I haven't cried over you for months. Then this conversation happens. For the two people I have loved there is always someone they love more. |
This is how you lose her.
You lose her when you forget to remember the little things that mean the world to her: the sincerity in a stranger’s voice during a trip to the grocery, the delight of finding something lost or forgotten like a sticker from when she was five, the selflessness of a child giving a part of his meal to another, the scent of new books in the store, the surprise short but honest notes she tucks in her journal and others you could only see if you look closely.
You must remember when she forgets.
You lose her when you don’t notice that she notices everything about you: your use of the proper punctuation that tells her continuation rather than finality, your silence when you’re about to ask a question but you think anything you’re about to say to her would be silly, your mindless humming when it is too quiet, your handwriting when you sign your name in blank sheets of paper, your muted laughter when you are trying to be polite, and more and more of what you are, which you don’t even know about yourself, because she pays attention.
She remembers when you forget.
You lose her for every second you make her feel less and less of the beauty that she is. When you make her feel that she is replaceable. She wants to feel cherished. When you make her feel that you are fleeting. She wants you to stay. When you make her feel inadequate. She wants to know that she is enough and she does not need to change for you, nor for anyone else because she is she and she is beautiful, kind and good.
You must learn her.
You must know the reason why she is silent. You must trace her weakest spots. You must write to her. You must remind her that you are there. You must know how long it takes for her to give up. You must be there to hold her when she is about to.
You must love her because many have tried and failed. And she wants to know that she is worthy to be loved, that she is worthy to be kept.
And, this is how you keep her.

You’re standing there waiting for your favorite band. They were scheduled to go on at 8, it’s 8:03. You know it’s going to happen but it still catches you by surprise. The lights go down and a deep bass note, one so deep you feel it in your chest, rumbles from the speakers. Then it happens; everyone rushes forward, pushing the air out of your lungs. Then all that matters is that band and knowing that everyone is just trying to get a little closer to a band they love just as much as you do. Everything is perfect.

So when you have to watch someone you love move on before your eyes. You have a bad day.

Something that I’ve noticed is that after theses past few months that have driven my emotions in to overdrive. I’m not sure what I feel anymore. The loneliness is there, but not so crippling. I’ve learned to be ok. At the same time though I worry that I’ve become more guarded. Almost dangerously to the point where no one is going to get in.
Honestly, I’m okay with that.
@3 weeks agoThis side of my bed wasn’t supposed to be empty tonight.
Not that I decided, but I fell in love with.
