i feel goofy because i only cry maybe once or twice a year. idky i'm tearing up but i feel like someone is strangling my nafs. i feel like ripping my brain out of my head to just make it all stop/ i'm tired of thinking about him. seeing him everywhere. sleeping with him on my mind. waking up and wondering what he's doing under the same sky. letting my feelings overtake me.
my first mistake was checking his gf's social media. yeah i'm a psycho like that. i don't hate or even dislike her just feel tremendously melancholy when i see how much better she is than me in so many ways and all that i'm missing from him. i went through some of their pictures together and see them being everything i want us to be and more. the way he holds her. the trips they go on together. the sunsets they enjoy in each other arms. the way he goes above and beyond to make her feel so loved and so special.
i saw him in person for the first time in almost a year again the other week. I knew it was him from the back of his head and just wanted his attention for even a second but i felt all too ashamed to even try for it. i just watched him walk back and forth then drag off down the strip in his car that i once used to feel so comfortable in too. now i was a stranger looking in, only desperate and yearning.
i will never know him like she does. i will never love someone else like i've loved him. though i've tried so hard i can only pretend to be unfazed. when in reality i'm twofaced and everything but submitting to this endless longing is lying to myself. i love him. i love him a thousand times over. i love him in a way i've never loved anyone else and pretending otherwise feels like forcing a stake through my heart.
i know we can never be together and that i shouldn't be alone but his love is all i desire. i only want to hear his voice. i only want to know his embrace. it hurts that he will never feel the same.
