Be Dazzled

by Ryan La Sala

When I see him, I see us. How we came together, what we created together, what we ruined together. I see our every moment, and at the same time, I see us unraveling all at once. It’s gutting. And the only way to understand how we fell apart is to understand what made us us in the first place.

Long enough that the devastation isn’t constant. Now it just comes at me sideways sometimes, knocking me down into my thoughts.

Maybe it’s hardest to begin the things we know will bring about ends.
