Losing You

by D., Wahyuni Busyra (Editor)

I love you, unsaid, unwritten, and unknowingly
I love you as the sun loves
the depths of the ocean met it not
but fed it and nourishes it and life lives
I love you without a single wish to own
I love you fills the box I keep only for treasures.

I love you like how the day embraces the night
it can never be together, but how beautifully
one comes after the other
I love you in despair, in joy, or in pain
I love you as history loves the years
I love you in colours or in its absence
I love you like how the rain kisses the river
I love you flow and grow
the river now finds the sea

I love you despite having all I wish
I love you not because my nights are empty
I love you not for hearts untended
I love as like a dandelion cherishes the wind
I love you unseen, undeclared, invisible
I love you without anyone believing so
I love you more in the solitary corner
you made out of kindness and friendship
I love you more and speak of it less
why should I share my only selfish wish?
for all love that has built the world can only claim
that it does not exist.

3.5 ⭐️
May this book reach those who experience loss, heartbroken and undergoes healing process. Every process is unique in their own way so just because you didn’t recover (yet)doesn’t mean theres something wrong with you. This book just a perfect reminder that healing process does not need to perfect. There are no the right guidelines for it. We just need to go through it and take our own pace to get back up again 💖
