In the future I pieced together for us You hold my hand and I kiss your thumb and I am not afraid to tell you I miss you In that future we stand together in the grocery aisle Arguing over which kind of ice cream to buy And later I kiss the caramel off of your face while we clean up the plates In that future, you don’t leave at the first warning sign. You tell me that you’re scared and that it’s not easy to love when everything else is hard. You don’t think it’s the right time. You laugh when I tell you we’re worth fighting over but I mean what I say and you believe me. You stay. In the future we really have, I am holding somebody else’s hand. They don’t taste the same and they don’t remind me of warm  bread or taste like red wine. They smile different and they don’t make me laugh the same but they’re willing to try and I want to hold on to someone with less warning signs.

in this one, you don’t stay (via loveserum)

You know what breaks my heart? Kids who were always told that they were too smart and used to be overachievers but now they have depression and anxiety and other mental illnesses and can’t recover because the bar was always too high for them and they just sit and suffer silently watching everyone else get on with life while trying to be what they used to and trying not to commit suicide but they can’t talk about it because “You’re smart you’re gonna figure it out yourself ” . Nothing is more disappointing than knowing that no one will help you as you sink deeper and deeper into darkness and believing that all your high hopes and dreams will remain dreams forever. I feel you kids. You are not alone .

And I think it’s a shame. Not that you didn’t want me. But that you never even tried. You never asked me what I like to do on Monday nights when I’m home alone, or what kind of music makes me sad. You don’t know what my passions are, who I keep close, or how I feel about the ocean. And who knows–maybe, if you had learned those things, you still wouldn’t have wanted me. But who knows–maybe you would have.

1. Make your own grave to visit. Engrave the headstone with the words “I love you, I love you, I loved you.” Or “here lies the remains of almost, maybes, and should’ve beens.” Never leave flowers; nothing new would grow there anyways. 2. Remember that the only signs that exist between you two now are stop signs and speed limits. Stop searching for anything else, they are not there, they are no longer there, and they will never be there again. 3. Stand outside on a freezing morning before the sun has come up with no jacket and no shoes. Feel the cold nip at your body trying to chip it away until it gets to your warm center. Remember that this is how their love felt when the lows were low. 4. Throw away that sweatshirt and forget what scent they wear. Their sleeves do not bare their arms, they are not holding you. And, their scent is not their neck, you are not snuggled into it. 5. Look for new faces in crowded rooms. Theirs does not exist. It never did.
