Missing

"Mira!"
"Kay!"
*squeals*
"How are you? Oh my god, it's been forever, hasn't it? I missed you so much. How've you been? Your hair looks so different. This new colour is so you. I can't believe you finally got rid of all the blue highlights. Oh my god, there is so much I need to tell you. And we have to go see Haley and Mel. They are totally clueless about you coming back. And we- "
"Mira, calm down. I only just got here. I missed you too."
"Well, you better have. Come on then. Let's get you home. Airports aren't my favourite place to catch up."
"I am only staying for a few days so I'll just get a hotel room or something."
"Nonsense. My house is big enough for us and the Brady bunch. Not that I'd ever have anything to do with them."

No matter how much you try to kill it or forget it, home always catches up with us. I finally got home. As much I hate it, God, I missed this place.


Because I missed my best friend and felt very lonely. Yes, on new year's eve. I have the worst timing, I agree.
Hope your celebration is doing way more cheery stuff than mine.
Love (...or not tonight. I don't feel the love today.)

Nothing

"I had hoped it would all be ok..eventually. But it’s not. And it’s not gonna be. Ever. So I have to go. And it’s why you should too.” “But giving up isn’t-“ “It is.  We tried. It didn’t work so it probably never will.” “But-“ “In case you haven’t noticed yet, trust doesn’t come easily to me. I don’t do second chances and fresh starts. I do goodbyes and after all this time, I’ve become rather good at them.” “Don’t do this. You don’t wanna do this.” “I don’t, I have to. Goodbye, D” And with that I quickly turned on my heel and walked away feeling nothing. Absolutely nothing. As I said, I’ve become rather good at goodbyes. Still here (unfortunately for me) K

Hidden letters : Hope could bring destruction.

You've hurt me a lot. Far more than you think you could've. Your words, your disdain, your disapproval- they've broken me even when I'm at my best. You've taken everything from me by just a condescending look or distasteful comment. You've beat me down. But it is my fault for being so gullible to you- just you, no one else. Gullible to believe you when you say something nice to me or appreciate my work. Gullible enough to think you want the world for me too. Truth is you want the world for only yourself and the rest for me. You may not know it and I may be stupid enough to fall for your manner every single time but I will never forgive you. Especially for these last two years. They've been torture for my pride. I have two more years to go for this torment and then I'll be gone. At least I hope so.  Because if I don't, then I'll break for real. And I'll be gone forever. For real. But that won't be on you, it'll be on me. Just me. ...

Welcome home, Mae

And so I packed up my bags and left, not turning to look back. Didn't take much with me. Didn't want anything to do with my past. Just a few documents, clothes and some cash to survive. And one photograph in the heart-shaped silver pendant that hung around my neck. I left without saying goodbye. Not that there were any to give. So I took the first flight out and left the town I'd always known. Where I had been my whole life. The only place I knew for sure. I moved to a new city. A big city. Where I could get lost in the sea of faces that walk it every single day. The thing about cities is that they're so full of life yet they lack life. They house people and families but they don't house a community. People say that the city is shallow. Materialistic and oblivious of reality. That cities lack a story. They lack character and depth of spirit. But they don't. Cities simply hide stories well. Better than any town ever could. Cities are full of stories. Ther...
