I have been waiting for your call whole day and night. I couldn't rest in peace even for a second.
The last time we talked was yesternoon. Since then, you neither called me nor texted me.
You didn't care about how much I have been missing you since you left me.
Parting was my decision. I agree. But there's a reason behind it.
I never wanted to part from you even though you shouted at me or scolded me or got irritated at me too often.
Even though many times you raised your thoughts about leaving me and staying in peace, I took them lightly. But the day you spoke to me that I'm living as a burden on you, I decided to leave you alone. I never wanted to make you suffer. I have always wanted you to be happy and enjoy your life. But sometimes, I feel pressurized and exhausted too. I too get tired and wanted to vent out my frustrations upon someone. And maybe that's the reason I stay silent to calm myself. But you feel it as boring and irritating. Even when I try to share my thoughts and feelings with you, you find it illogical and justify it as if I'm overthinking.
Maybe you are right. Sometimes, I overthink a lot. But that's just because I feel insecure about you. I feel as if I'm not able to hold you as tight as I can. I feel as if someone could easily snatch you away from me. But you don't find it logical.
Sometimes I felt as if you're getting bored of me. You're getting bored of watching the same face, the same attire, the same figure of mine regularly. And that's when I decided to take a break from our relationship.
People say, long-distance relationships bring couples closer. Couples get to understand each other's values in their life. And that's what I had observed from my friend's relationship in the past. But I didn't find that effective for our relationship.
Getting into long-distance relationship is pushing us apart from each other. The strong bonding we have been tied with is loosening slowly. And it's getting tough for me to bind it strong again.
I remember the day before our wedding, when you kissed me on the terrace all of a sudden. I was stunned. It gave me goosebumps all over my body and my hands started shivering. After all, it was my first kiss and you stole it. I was shy. I was confused. But I still wanted it to go on. I still wanted our bodies to be held tight, our lips to get light. I still wanted that moment to stop for a while. Those thirsty eyes of yours made me move closer towards you. And I wanted it to continue.
But now, it's all gone. I'm not even sure whether you remember that moment or not.
Why is it so complicated??
Am I too hard to understand??
