solivagant]

i woke up a couple of weeks ago

and realised that i can pass you by like a punch in the face

—i don't want you anymore.

and it felt like a head-rush, sticking my feet into desert sand

or pushing out of a helicopter into open sea

almost as exhilarating as the day i realised i wanted you.

almost.

It is exhilarating in the sense that it accompanies the realization that it's no longer necessary to continue something that's broken. And, later, the lessons gleaned from each experience add towards a further understanding of self and what is needed...but i hate that feeling. Like i've been blind the whole time. Like i'm going to feel jaded for awhile until it passes. Aptly penned.
