“If I'm not the love of your life
I'll be the greatest loss instead”
― Rupi Kaur, The Sun and Her Flowers

“he was supposed to be
the first male love of your life
you still search for him
everywhere

- father”

“you are waiting for someone
Who is not coming back
meaning
you are living your life
hoping that someone will realize
they can't live theirs without you

Realizations don't work like that”
― Rupi Kaur, The Sun and Her Flowers

“i am confident i am over you. so much that some mornings i wake up with a smile on my face and my hands pressed together thanking the universe for pulling you out of me. thank god i cry. thank god you left. i would not be the empire i am today if you had stayed.

but then.

there are some nights i imagine what i might do if you showed up. how if you walked into the room this very second every awful thing you’ve ever done would be tossed out the closet window and all the love would rise up again. it would pour through my eyes as if it never really left in the first place. as if it’s been practicing how to stay silent so long only so it could be this loud on your arrival. can someone explain that. how even when the love leaves. it doesn’t leave. how even when i am so past you. i am so helplessly brought back to you.”
