It's strange how inanimate objects can sometimes become symbols of our emotions. The other day I happened to cross this building after several months. The building had the same name as the guy who had caught my attention a long time back.
Back then, everytime I'd cross the building, I'd look at the name of the building and a surge of emotions would rush through me. Most of it sad.
You see this "love" thing is poisonous. It might be beautiful, but has the power to destroy you.
Most of those days, I'd look at it and hope that all these emotions would end.
And trust me, it did end. But that was the day my life decided to change course of action. No, literally. I stopped going past that building and made the decision to not let it affect me.
Not feel anything, to the point where I felt nothing at all. Don't judge, I know you have been through that phase too. If you are there now, trust me, it'll pass. If you haven't been there, brace yourself, you will be.
It had been many months since I had last gone through that same road. But when I happened to see the building again, something had changed. Looking at the name, or the building wouldn't conjure anymore emotions. But yes, the memories stuck. One look at it, reminded me of all those days of internal screaming, crying, pain and sometimes happiness.
It was that day, when I realised that even non-living objects had the power to symbolize the surge of human emotions. The struggle, hardships, and memories that an individual goes through every single day of their lives.
It might be strange, but I think it's beautiful.
