Heartbreak is heartbreak is heartbreak

but it’s harder to move on when there's no reason to speak to her again.

A magnitude 7 earthquake.

How do you mourn the loss of a relationship

when

you kept things as just friends anyways?

You held her hand and pacified her fears.

You gave up sleep just to lend an ear.

You told everyone about how wonderful she was.

Was.

Is?

You keep giving chances hoping things will change.

Because it hurts like hell

but you still love her anyways.

Besides—

hope stings less than absolute pain.
