Love is such a tender thing with it it brings joy, happiness, pain and sadness. You go through life being told you have to find a 'mate' to love and that is the most important thing, but they never told you what being apart from the one you love most can do to your heart. Have you ever experienced the ache so deep that it brings you to your knees? Not been able to move because the sadness overwhelms? Felt like you were walking drunkenly because your view was so distorted? Being ripped from the very thing that tethers you to reality is not for the faint of heart. You mask the pain through smiles, and with the 'I'm fines' they wouldn't care how deep the scars go anyway. Running, running, running as far as your legs will take you just so you can feel something again. Only to turn up empty when you collapse. Fists pounding the walls to mask the screams. The terrifying feeling of coming out short handed. The bad habits you find yourself involved in because you’re trying anything to forget the hurt. It hurts all over again mistake after mistake. Nothing can fill this emptiness. This void. This loneliness. This anger. One more cut, one more drink, one more flaw, one more mistake. Be mad at my failures tomorrow. Love is such a tender thing.
