Classy & You

How to survive a heartbreak in less than 10 steps:

1. The moment you feel your heart starts to crack, close your eyes. Take deep breaths. A lot of deep breaths. And spend the whole night on your bed thinking about how stupid you’re to end up in such a pathetic situation. Think about everything from the day you met them to present. Think about the things you planned to do with them and everything you did with them. Think. Think till you lose your sanity.

2. Cry. There’s no shame in crying. Cry till your eyes bulge out. Cry till you have to turn over your pillow cause your pillow case is too wet for you to lay your head on. Continue crying again. It’s okay to cry. It’s okay to let out everything. Believe me, you’ll feel great after nice session of crying. And repeat whenever required.

3. Wake up next day and take a long ass shower. Let the water wash away the pain from last night from the roots of your hair to the tip of your toes. Talk to yourself in the shower. Say everything you wanted to tell them. Every single word. Just say it out to the walls of your bathroom. Because you don’t have to swallow those words just for them to be stuck at the back your throat like acidic bile. So say it out loud. They deserve to be spoken out.

4. Get all the chocolates out from the fridge and grab a water bottle and watch back to back episodes of your favorite series. Eat, keep eating till your mouth loses the taste of how their name tasted on the tip of your tongue. Drink water, you don’t wanna choke and die. Seriously though.

5. Go to a park. Sit down. You must be tried of chasing someone who didn’t want to be caught in the first place. Give yourself some rest. Watch the children play. Admire the beauty of the flowers. Look at the clouds. Feel the fresh air around you. And if there aren’t many people around, go play in the swings and slides.

6. Write. Write till your fingers get cramped. Write down every single thing you felt and feel. Write even though you’re running out of metaphors. Write how science cannot explain how you felt your heart drop right from your chest. And repeat ‘step 2’ if necessary.

7. Don’t check the screenshots of their Snapchat. Don’t read your chat logs. Just don’t. It’s a very bad idea. It’s better you just delete them one by one. Yeah it’s gonna be hard to delete months load of screenshots and even harder to delete your chat log. But it’s for the best.

8. I won’t say that there are plenty of fishes in the sea cause you’re pretty much done fishing for an entire decade, or more. So learn to love yourself. Spend more time reading books. If you don’t like reading watch series again. Keep yourself busy by doing anything that will keep your mind from wandering into their footsteps.

9. Don’t brew hatred within you. Forgive yourself. The sorrows will go away. Your broken heart will mend. All you need is some time. And it’s okay to get your heart broken. And it’s okay to be sad. It’s okay to feel all these emotions. Because that’s what makes you human.

__( keep repeating till the day your heart doesn’t ache to the sound of their name.)

pessimisticandrealistic:

sometimes it all just hits you like a train. all the memories, all the feelings, all the inside jokes. you could be sitting in a library, reading some book for university, or even walking to your best friend’s place. in that moment time just stops and you remember every single kiss and every single touch. remember how you first met and how you had the infamous butterflies when he took your hand in his for the first time. all of a sudden you remember whole conversations you two had, and you can even hear the exact words he used to tell you that he likes you.

sometimes everything that once was, runs through your veins again. it makes you stop whatever it is you’re doing for a moment, because it makes you feel physically sick. it makes you feel as if you’re suffocating, and even your heart seems to stop for a second.

but the next thing you know, you’re breathing just fine again and you’re telling yourself to keep it together.

These eyes have cried

enough tears for you

Now, there are no more

tears left for you

These eyes are bloodshot

coz I’ve not slept at all

for countless nights

just thinking of you

Now, there won’t be

sleepless nights

anymore coz of you

These eyes have

relentlessly

searched crowds

hoping to see you

Now, they will no longer

search again for you

These lips have quivered,

trying hard not to cry

coz I miss you

Now, they will not quiver

coz I’ll never again

cry a single tear over you

These lips have yearned

to be kissed by you

Now, they will never yearn

again for you

coz I now know I deserve

so much better than you

These ears have craved

to hear a calming sound,

your voice and the many

stories told by you

Now, they know it’s nothing

but lies spun by you

This poor heart of mine

that you shattered to bits

has longed and ached

to be mended by you

Now, I much rather

leave it shattered

than have it beat

one more time for you
