too much

-my photo- 

 i was doing okay
i was staring at her from across the table
and i said something about her tongue
i burst out laughing and she was just amused at me
then i laughed too hard
too fast
too soon.

because the tears that you try to hold back
the ones that try to hide behind laughter
the ones that scream of goodbyes
those come rushing.
too hard
too fast
too soon.

it hurt and i couldn't stop it.
the last conversation for awhile.
the last look in her eyes.
the last hug.
the last.
last.

goodbyes come too hard
too fast
too soon

i already miss her. i miss them. i miss hearing her laughter from across the room. i miss hearing her words flow from the heart. i miss a hand to hold when i need it. i miss everything and nothing and more. 

i don't understand

why does pain have to hurt so much



p.s. i'm going camping. this time with my fam. i'll be back by the end of the week, i think.
mountains heal the soul...
and also break it when you leave.
ow ow ow. i love you guys.

  6. PAIN HURTS SO MUCH. I actually have a post set up for next week about pain... I'm kind of scared about showcasing it because it's extremely sensitive for me, but eh, I feel the need to write it.

    xoxo Morning

  10. Wow! This is such a amazing and beautiful poem and just so..real. I get what you mean in your poem...I had to say goodbye to someone too, a little while back, and I probably won't see that person again for a long long time.
    Enjoy your family camping trip, Cally!
