H a l c y o n
(n.) a period of time in the past that was idyllically happy and peaceful.
◦◦◦
the breakup series #1:
goodbye
◦◦◦
it hurt
in every way
imaginable
how
my phone screen
was the
closest thing
i had to
you
how
your name
feels
foreign
on my
lips
how
the mere
thought of
you
makes
my eyes
burn
with unshed
tears
as opposed to
the smile
that would
bloom
on my
lips
how
i am
all i
have
even though
i have
you.
◦◦◦
i
could never
admit it
to myself
but
the signs
were all
there
the gradual
distance
the unsettling
numbness
the choked
sobs
i try to
bury
in my pillow
