Do We Really Heal After the Breakup

--

When Your Heart Holds On To What The Hands Can’t.

The two bodies are not together anymore but it feels like so. I always get to think about her like she is in the present when she’s not. It’s been months already but it all feels alive.

Some songs hit deep because she always comes to mind. Sometimes my body reaches out to hers, without an idea she is no longer there to reciprocate. The thought of her not there still feels unreal I won’t lie. But yeah, she’s no more.

They always say 'Time Heals All Wounds’, but I seriously doubt those words till this day. I thought the thoughts would fade over time, but I guess it’s here to stay.

I hear her voice when I laugh at something funny. I pick up my phone to tell her first when something happens. Then I remember that I can't. I just sit there, stuck in-between reality and memory.

Letting go is easier said than done. People don't understand what it means to have someone stuck in your bones like a part of you. And yes she wasn't just someone I had affection for, she was the reason I dreamt. I saw everything with her in the picture. Someone I always trusted in my best and worst days.

I can't even explain how deep it cuts into me. I still remember what she smells like, what her face…
