It Hurts, Still

It’s been a while since we parted ways, but I still find myself unable to shake off the love I feel for him. Even though we’re no longer together, his absence feels like a constant ache in my heart. I miss him terribly, and it’s hard to accept that he’s no longer a part of my life.

Those pictures, tucked away in a corner of my phone, hold memories I’m not ready to let go of. Sometimes, in a moment of weakness, I find myself scrolling through them, hoping to capture a piece of the happiness we once shared. But each glance only serves to reopen the wounds, reminding me of what I’ve lost.

I was so deeply in love with him when we were together, and that love hasn’t faded with time. It’s frustrating, not knowing how to stop loving someone who’s no longer there. I’ve tried to distract myself, to focus on moving forward, but his presence lingers in my thoughts, haunting me wherever I go.

Every little thing seems to trigger memories of him – a song on the radio, a familiar scent in the air, or a place we used to frequent together. It’s like he’s everywhere, a ghost from my past that I can’t escape.

I’ve been trying so hard to heal, to mend the broken pieces of my heart, but some days the pain is just too much to bear. On those days, I find myself drowning in sorrow, longing for him to come back and fill the void in my life.

But amidst the tears and the heartache, there are also moments of hope. I cherish the good days, when the pain subsides and I can glimpse a future without him. It’s a slow and arduous journey, this process of healing, but I’m determined to find peace and closure, even if it means letting go of the love that still binds me to him.

For now, I’ll hold onto those memories, cherishing them as bittersweet reminders of a love that once was. And maybe, just maybe, with time and patience, I’ll find the strength to move on, and to finally let him go. I don’t think I will ever be able to love another person because they won’t be him. But until then, I’ll continue to miss him, to love him, and to carry him in my heart, wherever I may go.
