THE CUT THAT ALWAYS BLEEDS
༶•┈┈୨♡୧┈┈•༶
Break ups have never been easy. Losing someone that you once shared every moment with can be very devastating. Each individual coped with this differently. For Jobe, he was slumped up and depressed for days. If it wasn't for Jude dragging him out of the house, he'd still be sat in his room thinking about how everything could have been different if he wasn't so scared of being in a public relationship.
Anisa had been doing the exact same thing. She had been sat moping around in her room for weeks. Her friends had tried to get her to open up but she refused to do so. Instead she laid on her head, replaying the exact moment that they broke up whilst one specific song was playing on repeat in the background.
The song that she focused on was 'The Cut That Always Bleeds' by Conan Gray. As Anisa listened to the song, certain lyrics stood out to her, as she related it to the relationship between her and Jobe.
One thing Anisa loved to do was sing. Sometimes she'd just sing in the shower but other times she would record herself singing and post it to YouTube. Listening to this song repeatedly gave her the motivation to get out of bed and post a cover to it.
As she looked in the mirror, she noticed that she looked like she had been crying for weeks. She jumped in the shower to clear her thoughts and make her feel refreshed. After her shower, she blow dried her hair and straightened it as that was her favourite thing to do.
Once her hair was done, she applied concealer to cover up the dark circles that had formed over the past few weeks. She finished up her light makeup and grabbed her camera to start recording. She played the instrumental version of the song on her TV and began singing.
Anisa's voice was so angelic, it felt like a soft melody that could calm any heart. She tried her best to hold back her tears but the emotions could be heard from her voice.
'But even though you're killing me I, I need you like the air I breathe'
Anisa choked on her own breath when it came to these lyrics as she couldn't stop thinking about Jobe. She would take back Jobe in a heartbeat even if he wasn't good for her. That's the beautiful thing about love; even with their flaws, someone else will still love them.
She finished singing the song and once she turned the camera off, she broke down into tears for all the pain and emotion she was holding back. The weight of it all came crashing down, and in the quiet of the room, she finally let herself feel everything she'd been trying to hide.
