If you are happily married or in the carefree surroundings of a relationship, do not read the next article. These words aren’t for you. These are for the broken in spirit viewing the world in relenting retrospect trying to find where, how, or even why they left.
In order to forget and move on from your past relationship, you must exhaust every word and feeling you have stockpiled away to let telling them how you feel. Every single alienating and exposing word must be voiced. This is the first masochistic step to recovery.
There is always going to be inebriation to forget and bring a hangover in the morning, eating to sicken yourself, and countless carnal endeavors only proving a morning of awkwardness is far more tolerable than a night of loneliness. Crawling into any one of these is the easiest and most self-satisfying part.
For some, the second step can only be ridden so far until the realization that your words were gospel when you told them, “I love you.” You can’t forget even a single sense they entertained when being in the same room, their voice on the phone, or even just a reminding letter of how they feel.
If you find yourself waking up to that then you have found it.
Sometimes along this twisted path called life we are fortunate enough to meet that one person to make everything all right and everything so terribly wrong in the wake of their absence. They make the air sweeter, maybe even holy. When this is the case, and every single lonely avenue has been explored to forget and get over, then hold onto it. Keep it. For this love is yours to have and something not a soul without the same feeling can ever understand, something to not get over.
