Hidden

You love him
He doesn‘t love you back. You need him
He doesn't need you back
He leaves
And all you do is
Wait.

For him to take notice
For him to call you once
Just cling onto all the memories, all the fun times
Force your needs upon him
He suffocates, He quits
And you still don’t stop haunting his lives.

He doesn't wanna make things messy
But does he understand you?
Does he realise
What does he mean to you?
And then realization strikes

And start your desperate attempts to act
like you don’t care..
But the truth remains
Its all hidden there in you.

No matter how many  parties you attend
how many vodka shots you gulp
No matter how much you bitch
You tell yourself that you ‘deserve better’
No matter how much you stare at the screen of your phone
And how many hours you stand at the door
No matter how much you wish with all your heart
That you could hear from him one last time..

He doesn't trace his path back
And you continue your endless directionless wait
Every passing day....

P.S. To every girl who still waits,
Yes, patience is a virtue. But do you deserve being treated like that?

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Today is a day just like any other. It is no more special than yesterday or tomorrow. No doubt, it’s Valentine's Day! But it's been 2 years when I lost someone I loved. I planned the rest of my life with him and it fell apart right before my eyes on a cold Sunday night.

But this is not a sad story.

This is a happy story.

This guy made me who I am today. Without him I wouldn't be the person that I need to be. I learned so much from him and through our relationship. It was tough and it was hard, but you can't learn from it if it doesn't hurt.

I am thankful for my past. I am thankful for my present. I am thankful for my future.

I say all that to say, after a break up its okay to be mad. It's okay to be angry and it's okay to be hurt. But after all that, be grateful, be thankful and be happy. Take it from one use-to-be heartbroken girl. After it's all said and done, the pain subsides, the memories fade, and there is hope and life still ahead. I just wish someone would have told me it would eventually be this good. It just takes time.
Lots and lots of time.

I encourage you to move on and let it be.
Forgive and forget.
All you can do is try to do it better the next time around and hope for the best.
Guard you heart and keep your standards high.
But "The One" is out there, he's just waiting for the most perfect unexpected time to sweep you off your feet...
