""And this is all still so new to me,
Our eyes have lost their color.
And now I'm trying, I'm trying to keep my balance."
-Chiodos "Smitten for the Mitten"
Blink back those tears, darling
before anyone notices that
behind your perfect mask of
nonchalance
is a vulnerable heart
that's pumping for him.
You can try to hide it all you want
but, dear, you're not fooling anyone.
They know.
They all know that you're
-b-r-e-a-k-i-n-g-
no matter how many times you say
"it doesn't fucking matter"
(because it does matter
it does, it does, it does.)
x
That once comfortingly familiar smell
of cigars and sweet cologne
is now nauseating.
That once heartwarming half smile
now causes nothing but heartache.
That laugh that you cherished
is now haunting your every dream.
But still
s t i l l
you long oh, so deeply for all of those things
even though they're hurting you
so damn badly
because, somehow, some way
the pain feels worth it.
As long as you can win
him in the end.
x
It's so much easier to
just be his
friend
but it's not like you really had a
choice
in the matter.
It's not like you
chose
to fall for him
(&fall you did.)
Now you're
to deal with the side effects
&there's no medicine to make
a heartache
hurt less.
It's a well known fact, sweetie, that
love
equals
pain.
But everyone also says that
pain is only temporary
&love lasts (something like) forever.
x
Stop pouting that bottom lip
wipe away those silently shed tears
&smilesmilesmile
because it will all pay off
it will all be worth it
his arms will be your home.
Sooner or later.

Love is a glorious thing, isn't it? *Rolls eyes*
