It’s just wishing and hoping to feel love once again, but at the back of my mind I’m thinking about the one that left me in darkness and I’m questioning myself will I end up heartbroken all over again when I stand at the crossroad. Broken memories becomes a reality when I have thoughts I can’t even control. I questioned myself over and over again that all I ever did was trigger that thought of wanting to love but all the memories came back at once. All I ever want for myself is a chance to love right.

I want to give someone my time and attention; and I want to learn how to share my thoughts; my happiness and (hopefully) my darkness. I want to learn how to open up my wounds to someone and not be afraid that they would hurt it deeper. I want to share my life with someone that only tried to be better and that they deserved the best out of me but I’m still trying to get there. I’m still trying to pick up the pieces.

But I don’t know why it’s the constant pain that come and go each time I tries to open up my heart. It’s those memories that I’ve kept at the back of my mind that reminds me of the darkness I sat in for years. It’s the effort I have to take to walk out to the light again and the energy I had to gather to get out of bed. Yet, I don’t know why the past 3 days, those memories came flashing back to me leaving my heart in pain that I don’t know if I should be standing at the crossroad. And I don’t want to hurt another soul.
