I threw out the last of your things today. All of your letters, cards, and mementos are all gone now. That one last text that I had left in my inbox for months, telling me how much you loved me has finally been deleted. I haven’t actually looked at any of these things since the day you told me you didn’t love me anymore. They were more like ghosts. Things that haunted me, stuffed in drawers and closets, marking their territory as places I would have to avoid, unless I wanted to be reminded of what used to be.
The funny thing is, I never kept these things or clung to them because I believed you’d come back. I always knew better than that. I knew the moment you ended it that when you walked away you were walking away for good. And that moment will forever be engraved in my mind, in my heart, in my soul. I can’t shake it. It was like falling down a flight of stairs and landing on my stomach, having the breath knocked right out of me. It’s been five long months since that day. It took me five months to finally dispose of every last reminder of you because I was afraid. I was afraid that by getting rid of those memories that I would forget what it felt like to be loved like that. You fell out of love with me, and a part of me will probably always resent you for that. But at the time that those notes were written, those texts were sent, and those gifts were given, you were in love with me. And maybe it wasn’t the memory of you I was avoiding ridding my room of, but the memory of being loved wholeheartedly by someone.
Five months from the day my heart was given back to me in a million pieces, and I’m better now. I collected most of the pieces and put them back together. There’s just one little crack left, and I think that may always be there. The scar reminding me that I had a first love who I gave all of myself to. But I’m not bitter anymore, I’m free now; free to find someone to love me fiercely with everything they have. Free to find someone to love me the way I will love them.
The reason I am writing this shouldn't exist. We know where we need to be with each other and have known for a long time, but we also know the reasons why we can't move forward... and because of these reasons we'll never be able to leave the place were at. I don't just love you from a boyfriends point of view I don't even love you from just being your friend. I can't even begin to describe the way I feel about you. And even after everything we're still standing together.
You're someone that you go through hell with, but because you're still with me when it's over that's how I know I love you. We don't need to end this so that we can be with other people. You and I both have been waiting for something to come along that is going to help us move forward because there's no where else for us to go. I don't need to hear you tell me you want for me to like certain things about you. I don't want for you to tell me you wished I liked your hair. I don't want you to wear denims because I told you I liked them. I've made it this far. There's not one single thing that you could do that would make me turn and walk away from you. But if we take enough time we can stop. We can make ourselves move into a future that we know is going to be better for us. But we have to be willing to make that decisions or else we'll never get out of this.
For so long I have been closed off to others because I was happier being unhappy with you that being happy with someone who I didn't care for as much as I do you. I would prefer your imperfections over anything that another girl could give me. I have no idea what is up ahead, but I do know if I let myself sit in this standstill I'm never going to have a chance at getting over the way I feel about you. I don't want us to give each other up and try something new and then run back to each other. I don't want to be each others options. We both deserve better and what makes everything so hard is that we deserve the best that we know we can both put forth, but yet we're holding on to too many things from our past that will never allow us to give each other what we want for them.
We know we need to do this. I just don't want it to be out of hatred or because someone met someone else. I want to be able to move on before it's too late for either of us to have what we know we deserve.
15th april.2013 around 11:40 p.m. I waz in my room surfing net when suddenly my phone vibrated…it waz a call…I rushed to my study table…with loadz of expectationz in my eyez within a second I picked my phone and saw the caller…it wazn’t “HER”…in rage I cut the call and threw my phone…this is what I am going through since past 1 month…!! </3
It has been almost a year since we together but I am amazed that even after a year she actually has no attachment with me…we are not talking normally from past 1 month but still it seemz as if she doesn’t care at all…she is happy like that…without me…it hurtz…it really does specially when you see your only and only LOVE happy without you…I am upset…I don’t know what went wrong…?? What did I do…?? Why I am being punished…?? Why is she ignoring me…?? I just loved her…through the core of my heart even then she did this to me…why…?? ♥
Everytime I call her at night her phone is busy…she doesn’t even care to call back…even from some mutual friendz I got to know that she is alwayz out and busy and that too most probably with some guy…I even checked her status on whatz app…it waz dedicated to someone…obviously to some guy…I see her online on chat but she never botherz to reply me…not even once…she is not even bothered to know if I am alive or not…may be my LOVE for her went wrong somewhere…thatz why I am being punished like this…!! ♥
Or may be she found someone “BETTER” thatz why I am being ignored like this…Yes…she found someone better…someone more beautiful…someone more lovely…someone more charming…but there is one thing at which no one can ever replace me and that is my true and pure “LOVE” towardz her…NO ONE can love her more than I do…I am heart broken…I am shattered…I am smashed…this pain of being replaced actually hurtz…I wish one day may she realize what she did to me so that she doesn’t repeat this again with someone else…!! ♥
9th April 2K13.. I don’t know what is happening with me…I am just not feeling right…I am feeling uneasy…restless…thousandz of thingz are flooded in my mind…my future…my career…my family…my girlriend…I am way too tensed…I don’t know why I am feeling like this…this is the first time I am feeling such uneasiness…seemz like my essense and “ME”…all got vanished…!! ♥
From the past few dayz I am feeling this…itz like a bad sort of feeling…as if something is not going “RIGHT”…as if there is something wrong going around…seemz like I am not able to figure it out as well…not only this but even strange is that I don’t even feel like talking to anyone…I just feel like staying “ALONE”…all alone…from past few dayz I am not speaking to anyone properly…not even “HER”…I am not able to speak up anything to anyone coz itz almost impossible for me to explain what I am going through right now as I am myself not able to figure it out…!!
I wonder why me..?? Why am I experiencing this aweful feeling…itz so upseting…due to this behaviour of mine my friendz are misinterpreting me…they think I am ignoring them…they think I am showing attitude…all of them…one after another are leaving me but there waz only one person who didn’t…it waz “HER”…in my difficult situation and my changed behaviour she waz the one who supported me throughout…she made me speak up my problem…she consoled me…!! ♥
Basically we guys face so many hurdlez…upz and downz…mental and physical shockz…family pressure…work stress…thousandz of burdenz and responsibilitiez…that at timez we just need a “BREAK”…thatz the time we should stay “ALONE”…for a time being ofcourse…this break is necessary so as to revive yourself…your “INNER YOU”…your soul…she made me realize what and why I waz going through…now that I had my “ALONE BREAK”…with her support I am back now…I have again revived…so alwayz remember “AT TIMEZ BEING ALONE…FOR A TIME BEING OFCOURSE…IS THE ONLY WAY OUT…” ♥
28th March.2013
Itz 12:45 a.m. I am in my bed wondering n thinking jus about her...her thoughtz flooded in my mind...I checked my phone...all blank...no call from her...I threw the phone...turned around...closed my eyez when suddenly my cell buzzed...I hurried towardz it...it waz "HER" I picked up his call on the dot and shouted
Me - "Why didn’t u called me from the past 2 dayz….??"
He - "I waz busy with some work monkey…!!"
Me - "U didn’t had 5 minutez to talk to me…?? n after that when i called u didn’t pick even….mean u are….!!"
He - "Dear i seriously didn’t had time n i called u right now….!!!"
Me - "Itz not about time….itz about priority….n I got to know that i am not your priority in your life….now i don’t wanna talk….!!!"
And i cut the call n switched off my cell ….that night I waz upset for a while finding negativitiez in her...thinking how changed she is now but after a while I calmed down n thought patiently…waz it a really big thing….??? I mean didn’t I exaggerated a small thing…..wazn’t I being a bit too rude….may be yes…I waz rude to her….I didn’t bothered to know how she waz….or why she waz busy….if she waz fine….waz she in any trouble….I just assumed thingz in my mind n started to fight without even knowing the full factz…yes it waz my mistake….!!! ♥
Often in life when we get such situationz when we should once step in other person’z shoez as well n then make perceptionz….there are alwayz 2 sidez of a coin….n one must know the full factz before blaming….at timez our valuable relationz getz spoiled due to such mere thingz….n even if u did something which spoilt ur relation….have the gutz to face it…admit it n apologize….yes I have realized my mistake n I will talk to her n sort it out for sure coz life is too small to fight on such mere thingz…..!!! ♥ :)
For a year now, I haven’t been able to get you out of my head, and when I think I have, somehow thoughts of you come crawling right back in. I know it’s over and it has been, and I haven’t been genuinely happy since. Every morning I wake up after a dream that I so badly wish were true, and I don’t understand how you can’t love me back, or even how I can’t figure out how to trick my heart into hating you.
I’ve never been in love, but I think this is it. How could someone I care so much for and have so much in common with not realize that I was made for them?
I figure the sad thing about this situation is that you treat me like nothing, a stranger on the street, but in a second I would run right back into your arms. It’s because I love you, I LOVE YOU.
When we were together you said it back, I don’t think you realized how much I meant it and how little you did. Because we’re young, and reckless, we don’t have a care in the world, except I cared about you. And I still do, and I still will tomorrow and the next day.
I may be pathetic and sad. Not strong enough to move on, but I don’t want to be.
If you love someone don’t let them go, be selfish and fight for them, because if you don’t try you’ll regret never knowing, and you’ll fall asleep every night wondering.
I love you.
Love,
Only because memories are meant to be well kept. Here's to the Future. Music was blasting everywhere, people walking pass us every second, I held her hand in mine and I baffled to look into her eyes and smiled and said, "I love you." That was the first time I told her I loved her in person. and then I kissed her cheek. at one point she asked me to take off my sunglasses and I did and looked into her eyes and tightened my grip around her body. that was the first time in my eighteen year old life that I had gotten that physically and spiritually close to anyone. I wonder if she could feel how loudly my heart was beating inside chest. At one point, I felt how fast her heart was racing and had to comment it. Her smile got wider and responded "Its only because you are here."
Dear A,
understand this,
I don’t know what the future holds,
Well actually I do, you and me are in it.
Texting, talking, playing, kissing, hugging and all of that.
Actually, just add ‘-ing’ to every existing verb in the dictionary – we’ll do it all.
No matter where I have been these few months,
You have always caught up with me.
Someone would listen to your favorite DJ
Another made jokes just like you¨
While someone else would have the same name as you
No matter what I did, it always came back to you.
Leave the light on,
Stay up just a few more minutes like you always use to do
Oceans and miles are nothing, we’d beat them once
We can beat them again.
I called for the space between your right ear and collarbone,
And as far as I know, it still belongs to me. What's mine, is mine.
My heart is even more your own than when you stole it that warm august night three years ago. We belong together, realize that please.
Let me know soon, alright? Love you

I don't believe in love anymore. I once was love's biggest fan. I loved love. I believed in love at first sight, true love, soul mate, all that mushy-gushy stuff the best songs and books are written about. It's what every little guy dreams about. One day my princess will come....blah blah blah. I used to believe in love.
I was in love, like I'm talking head over heals, stars in your eyes in L-O-V-E. I loved you with all my heart even though I knew you weren't perfect. You were always more sure about us. Then we broke up for a summer, but our hearts led us back together after three months of not ever really being broken up. When I walked in on you and her in bed, I thought my world would end. But time heals all wounds right? And you were so sorry and it was the biggest mistake of your life and I took you back once again. We were happy again and more in love than ever. Then you said you wanted to move in together when the summer ended. And from there we would live happily ever after, you even knew how you wanted to propose but wouldn't tell me the surprise. I was living every guys fantasy. Against the odds we were soul mates made for one another. You went on your graduation trip across Europe and wrote me romantic emails. Then an e-mail came from six time zones away saying it had all been a lie. A lie? Three years was a lie? What should I be more upset about my broken dreams and broken heart, or the fact that I fell for it? Only fools fall in love, and love played me like a fiddle. So I don't believe in love anymore. Because if you don't believe in love there is nothing to cry about, and I don't have anymore tears to cry. So I gave up on love because it gave up on me.
With all of the love that you post, I felt compelled to share my favorite love story - the following post to my personal blog which references an evening I spent with the girl I love. She's typically opposed to any type of dancing, but on this particular [magical] evening she took my hand and led me to the middle of a crowded floor in a bar with no dance floor. We danced alone to the carefully selected music of the jukebox - the soundtrack of our lives together playing - and it was beautiful.
"As I sat in a crowded room full of strange faces,
soberly observing,
imagining the mysteries behind each set of unrecognizable eyes,
I turned to see this smile.
A sparkle in her eyes, her arms outstretched,
in an instant our bodies were contiguous
where, even over the thump, thump of the deafening beat,
our hearts rang strong against one another.
Tangled together,
we were a pendulum amongst battered barstools and broken tables.
Strangers' stories lay neglected and forgotten,
a heap of mystery in a cold dark corner.
For this is the only story that matters.
It is kept safe and warm between our beating hearts.
Eyes locked, we could not help but smile:
"This is Love."
