Diya

 "You love too hard. You love too deeply, too much. You should see if the other is reciprocating it too?" 

"What does that mean? How do measure love? You either love someone or you don't. You can't measure it in depths! "Oh, I love you 57%, no more than that though". If I love, I just do."

"And what will happen to your love the day he tells you that he doesn't love you?"

"Good question. They say we die twice in life. Once when you physically die and the second time is when someone utters your name for the last time. And there's a third, when that little light you kept on just for them extinguishes. Then loves gone". 

Stay

We're so vulnerable when we like someone. 

It's like we're saying, "I like you and I'm letting you in. Please don't break anything while you're here. Yes, I know it's soft and bruised but I hope you'll feel at home and stay for a while".

Stars

Stars in the sky. 

I look up and try to see one fall but I never seem to catch one. 

Why am I so adamant on seeing a falling star? 

Well, I want to make a wish. 

I want to wish for inner peace. I want to wish for love to be around me. I want to be comfortable in my light. 

Insecurities

 I've found that whenever I've shown my true feelings, it's been detrimental. Nobody understands your insecurities, other than you. I used to think that was sad but then I remembered, we are them, insecurities. And we're just going around trying to hide them from others. 

Forever

Lord... Let him write me love letters...

Roses, no ... roses die.

Letters last for centuries.

Silence

I know you'll never understand that and that's why I'll never tell you. 

Paradigm shift

 I have learnt to live my day without you. 

You made it quite clear where I stood in your world.

That is fine. I understand that now. 

A paradigm shift. 

It doesn't take long. 

A detox. Recalibration.

And we are ready to go again.
