Trista Mateer, from a poem featured in her collection titled The Dogs I Have Kissed

[connectingwithsoul]

It’s about direction. When the aim is clear and the resolve is steady, paths appear where none seemed possible. The way forward may be narrow, uneven, or hidden, but willpower keeps moving until ground is found.

“Sometimes the greatest act of love is to walk away so that the other person can find their true self and direction again.”

Wrote something new today 👇🏻

🌹

Some people you meet and you still long to talk to them 

They're gone

But you still want to show them things 

You want their opinion 

You want their outlook 

You want them deep in your body but actually it's your psyche

Where are they ? 

Where did they go ?

Why did they leave ? 

Was I not good enough to stay ? 

Why'd you go ?

Why did you leave me ?

Oh right. 

I also didn't believe it was gonna work out. 

What a hypocrite. 

I guess what I'm trying to say is: 

You're free

I miss you

I want you 

You inspired me to be happy by myself

Thank you

And you're free 

And I want you to stay away like it is now 

I KNOW it's for the best 

I don't see the future 

And you were a threat 

A crazy attractive, compelling threat that could have stole my future

Maybe I was a threat to you too 

Maybe that's why you left ?

I don't want to jump to conclusions 

But when there's something, it doesn't mean it would be enough for everything 

We were clearly something 

And that pull is hard to walk from 

Even now after the walking is done, desire lingers

But there's no alternative 

Friends ? 

No

What else then ?

It's Impossible 

So goodbye and I will see you again 

Probably never 

Maybe in someone else
