The last time we spoke, I told you that I was tired of the toxic cycle I was stuck with you, told you that you were a mistake I regret, blamed you for the fights that I've had with my then partner. I called you names and said things I did not mean, but the part that got you the most was calling you a "mistake". You always doubted yourself as to why things could never work between us, you like to put the blame on the differences in our culture until I met someone else who makes it work with me despite it all. 

You told me never to run to you again when I go through another fight with him, begged me to block you so you can never reach out to me even on your weakest day. Then my egoistic self let you down yet another time and tell you that my I'de be much obliged to have you cut out off my life completely. 

Took you 3 months before you make fake accounts to follow the things I have been up to, to message me reminiscing the days we get high on adrenaline rush from the shootings, car racing, and jumpscares I forced you to. Your inability to accept that you could not treat me the way I needed made you falsely believe that I chose whom I chose over you becoz of the success, the money, the power he could offer. So despite your promises to never reach out to me, you cannot contain yourself when you got into GeorgiaTech, or when you got a new job and bought your own new apartment in New York City. It's been 4 years since the last time I saw you in person, yet here you are keeping track of my every stories and posts.

Boy, what are you scared of? 

You cannot possibly to scared of losing me when you never had me in the first place.

Is it an egoist wish?

What am I to you?

Irreconcilable Love

Never been one to have wondering eyes. Been too focused on navigating life and building myself up that I forget to derive pleasure off casual flirty interactions.  No, I do not deny the attractiveness of the beautiful people around me. They sure are a pleasure to the eye. But like the saying "out of sight, out of mind"  I tend to appreciate them as part of God's creation. I acknowledge their beauty but swiftly return my attention to the self-centered trajectory of my own ambitions and the life I aim to achieve. Been so emotionally closed off while aching for a shoulder to lean on, someone to deeply connect to. Then there you were, showering me with promises, security that you won't do me wrong as I slowly let my guard down giving you the trust I haven't had the ability to instill on anyone else. I am not denying your claim that you did treated me well... atleast on the initial stages when you were overwhelmed by your infatuations. You worshipped me, treated me in ...
Perhaps I go about this the wrong way. All I know is I am drowning in my own emptiness inside of me. The void keeps getting bigger. I dive into distractions coz I cannot bear the pain of reality. I keep seeing you in every dream, begging you to stay.  The first time you appeared in my dream after your passing, you smiled at me - the very smile I'de do anything to keep. I told you that you died, you left me. You told me how silly I was to think you'de do that to me. You said you promised to stay and you weren't one to not keep your word. I woke up to find you were still gone. I wanted to fall back asleep to let you know I did not hold it against you that you had to leave me, I want to assure you that I love you nevertheless, nothing you do could ever make me love you any lesser. Even if your absense cause my entire being to shatter into pieces of nothingness.  In every dream, I would initially try to distract you from the fact that you died and if that fails, I go on to pers...

the inbetweeners

I stumbled upon an ad that caught my eye today, it wasn't the skincare product that made me stop and stare but rather the model advertising the product. I wondered for a second why this pretty woman looks so familiar until I realised it's the woman you've been seeing the past years since the last time we spoke.  The thought of you hardly crossed my mind anymore, like I am sure I barely ever cross your mind. But today I looked back down the memory lane of us and I tried to pin point exactly where we grew apart. Was it the last time I flew by that city, made you wait for 2 hours in the dinner reservation you booked and I left the bouquet of flowers you brought in my hotel to die? or was it that time you sent my mom bouquet but I switched off my phone when you called and the delivery had to leave it outside just for it to be stolen? or was it that time you sent a note with chocolate and flowers in college and I had my ex pick it up for me? or was it that time I drunk text you ...
