One thing I’ve learned in life is to never lend out books to someone who you don’t trust with your whole heart. Because the day will come when you don’t speak anymore and all the words that could’ve changed you and helped you get over their absence are somewhere lost at the bottom of their nearly abandoned basement.

I never lost myself completely but there are times I’ll find little remnants of myself all over the place and sometimes I wonder if I put them there or if they got lost along the way.

I can’t believe I am now seeing this and replying to it! I am so sorry for the length of time it’s taken me to respond. Thank you so, so much for this message. It’s crazy to think there is anyone out there that has that book or let alone thinks about my poems. You have no idea how happy that makes me. I want to start writing again but sometimes find myself hesitant, but it’s your message that makes me remember why I loved posting my writings so much. So thank you so much. I can’t explain how much this meant to me. Even if this message is old, your words have given me a sense of warmth that I haven’t felt for a long time.

I hope you’re doing well 💕

I woke up today feeling at ease

I woke up today feeling at ease

with everything that has been

out of my control in my past.

Like how I couldn’t control the way

you loved me, and how I couldn’t

control the way you left me.
