You can take your “I’m okay” hat off now. It’s just me. Fall apart. I’m not going anywhere.- Erin Van Vuren

Post Breakup
Dear Ex,
Can you please lift the curse?
She asked while looking at his pictures
She isn’t able to escape,
The songs she listen to, the movies she watches, and the books she reads
All appear to conspire against her
To remind her of his face in one way or another
She can even hear the memories talking through the wall
Sadness weighs her down like anchor weighs a ship down to the sand

Quote of the Week
The useless days will add up to something. The shitty waitressing jobs. The hours writing in your journal. The long meandering walks. The hours reading poetry and story collections and novels and dead people’s diaries and wondering about sex and God and whether you should shave under your arms or not. These things are your becoming.-Cheryl Strayed

China Doll
China Doll
On a shelf she sits,
On the wall,
Beautiful and defined,
The china doll.
They pass her by,
Smile and look.
Her soul,
An unread book.
She just wants,
To be hugged and loved.
Nobody stop,
In the corner she’s snubbed.
Afraid she’ll get broken,
so they leave her alone.
The pain in her heart,
Leaves her cold as stone.
Rumor Has It
Rumor has it that she forgot him and moved on
People whispering that she’s now dancing
With someone new under the moonlight
But the heartbreak inside her
Tells another story
She’s still in love with him
She’s still under his spell
She hasn’t felt any single season
Since the last summer when he coldly left her
