The ache deepens as I was having a tour of our old photos again,
I could hardly breathe, my heart seemed like being punched by a giant’s fist.
I shed tears as I cogitate the why’s of your unforeseen evanescence.
How could we end up as terrible as this?
How could you just let go of the dreams we vowed to achieve?
You left me hanging like a cat of multiple lives who was born again after a cataclysmic death—in this new life, there’s but no more of you.
Tell me, is there something I should have done to prolong the pages of our story?

My name is Apple Rae. A dreamy-eyed Idealist. A passionate writer. A promoter of love in all of its forms. An INFP whose passion for meanings, symbolisms and philosophy align perfectly with the love for poetry and art. Curious about everything—mostly about people and culture; life and death; astrology and consciousness; brain and science; music and video editing and ofcourse, love and dreams. I have a reaaaalllly wide interest but it all boils down to one thing: ART. The art of diving deep into all of these things that fascinate me and being in the flow of creation—with freedom, with ease, with authenticity.
Deep dive into my soul as you read my words and allow them to penetrate yours by feeling every emotion i have enveloped in them. Discover something about YOU as you find yourself energetically drawn to my light, to my meanings that only you can decode. 😉
Have an inspired tour in my website! Cheers 🥂

Life goes on sometimes in spite of us. In spite of what we want. This experience can serve you for the future. Do not dwell too long on the past or it’s ravenous jaws will quickly ensnare you. Look to the future and take all you’ve learned there. It may be hard now to envision but time is a marvellous thing and it lets us slowly move away from the emotional pains we bear. You will get better. You will heal. And a new you can now be discovered by something else, a new hobby or new passion. When you have nothing left, everything becomes possible.

I would just change : my heart seemed like being. It sounded strange because it’s two approximations one after the another.

I dunno about such intense feelings of longing.. I feel only pain where love used to be.. But I miss those wonderful times and wish I could rewind them and watch them again and again like a video… There was a time it was perfect… It ended badly but it had to end somehow.. Someday…

Aw I’m sad to hear this but look at you, you’re sooo positive and hopeful. Everyone should be like you when they’re moving on, you know.

Haha thanks. I think allowing yourself to feel the entire depth of emotion is important. Most people block their emotions out. That’s not healthy. Let them flow. Anger happiness grief.. All emotions lack control over you if you know how to express them in a healthy way.
