#love and heartbreak

I know people had been talking about how Divine Rivals was the best book they’d read this year (yes, even above Fourth Wing) but I was NOT PREPARED for the absolute heart wrenching grip this book would have on me!!!

I placed my hand in yours, and you held it tight

As if to reassure me, you wouldn't let go

I reached out my hand, to hold yours

You took it, and with a tight smile,

You placed it on my lap,

I grabbed your arm as you turned to walk away,

You wrestled free from my tight grip,

And in that moment,

I knew, you never meant to stay.

One day you're going to sit across from a girl that isn't me and fall in love with her.

Your mother is going to pester you to "just meet the nice girl I met the other day" and you'll sigh and do it just to get her off your back.

You don't expect to laugh at her jokes or be invested in her stories and it throws you.

She arrives at the restaurant an hour late because of her shift at the hospital. You don't really know why you waited. You've always hated tardiness. You were supposed to meet her once and that was going to be it. You didn't expect to want to see her again. And again. And again.

I see your engagement pictures on social media and I have to leave the room before my friends see my face.

In the photos, she wears her hair up, oxidised earrings in her ears and a beautiful pale pink sari around her, white heels peeking beneath her pallu. She leans against you, holding your hand and smiles brightly. Your gaze is soft and tentative. You are in love.

She gets to point at the sunset to get you to look too. Watch fireworks with you. Write poems for you. Have you listen while she complains. She gets to pull the corners of your mouth into a smile when you glare at the camera in pictures. She gets to occupy the same physical space as you. Which is to say she gets to love you.

I am sorry I could not cross physical space to be with you. Which is to say I loved you in whatever way I could. Which is to say there is some part of my being that has quieted after being known by you. Which is to say I will never not want life to go easy on you. I wish you the kind of forever in which there is ease and joy and all of life's mundane glory.

The longer you stare the more details you see and the worse it gets

(I believe it’s gets better)

There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket—safe, dark, motionless, airless—it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. The alternative to tragedy, or at least to the risk of tragedy, is damnation. The Only Place Outside Heaven Where You Can Be Perfectly Safe From All The Dangers And Perturbations Of Love Is Hell.” -CS LEWI

I confuse people. i have a happy personality and a sad soul. i'm bold but shy. i love deeply but sometimes i feel heartless. i'm healing and hurting at the same time. i'm dedicated to growth, but i self sabotage

[minimalist-quotes]

Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room.

[chuchaitiu]

Feeling safe in someone's energy is a different type of intimacy. That peace of mind and security is very underrated and I cannot emphasize this enough.
