Post 12/22


I went out yesterday, it wasn't good. And the streets were full of optimism.
People giving "free hugs", mothers hugging their blessings. Everything was pristine. Except for me.
I kept on swearing and I keep on walking, fast, through the crowd in my high heels.
And it didn't make me feel better. I think it just replaced my sadness with irritation for a while.
I talked to a lot of people yesterday.
But I still feel anxious.
And scared. That everyone I love will leave.
I remember reading once, that loving people was giving them the power to destroy you. Whenever a stranger tries to hurt you, it can be meaningless, and to me it is. I laugh it off. But when I love, even the smallest of gestures, that I cannot comprehend, will destroy me. Because I love them and everything hurts.
I wish I didn't love so strongly.
