Past, present, and future

Tom: With as little bias as possible, I will say that my past relationship failed because of the other person. People who do not even know me or her will say that, so I feel it has some credence. And even though it was, on the whole, that person's fault, it was still incredibly difficult to end the relationship. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done. A little more than two weeks later, it is still affecting me to a great degree. And I'm sure it will continue to affect me for some time. And no matter how hard I try to convince myself that to move on would be best (which is echoed by most everyone I know, still I find myself with the urge to speak to her, to see her, to touch and kiss her, even when I know the results would be disastrous. A drug addict looking for his fix. He knows it will destroy him, yet still he wants it. Withdrawal bites.
So how will I cope, how will I manage? By trying to bury it. Spending time with friends, spending time running, anything to otherwise occupy my mind and thoughts.
But even from the deepest, darkest hole, I still long for it and hear its whisper.


An original to leave you with. It's entitle "Magnets":

Like magnets,
How we were drawn to each other.
Like magnets,
How we were inseparable.
Like magnets,
How we thought we were made for each other.
Like magnets,
How we could never be near
When you turned your back.
