Still in tears

I knew it wasn’t right.
Personal values, societal values and all the works,
I didn’t let us grow.

We kept it platonic (difficultly so).
Our hearts wanted more.
Our heads knew better.
Only space and time can heal us.

I’m utmostly grateful for your THERENESS,
Your openness, your romance, your consistency and your maturity.

I did it for your clan, for my man for myself & for you.
When we meet in future, because  I'm sure we will,
We’ll catch up on our phases.
 I will miss you sorely.
 Still in tears.

So 'THERENESS' is so important in a relationship that you have to make it all CAPS? I'd have to work on that aspect of my life and relationships..
Pls savor the teary moment and let the tears flow till you're done :-)

Emotional Wahala…….

Emotion left on her own will depreciate someday While alive and in flames it seems as if you’ll be consumed if you don’t express her or the other party doesn’t react in the desired direction. She can bear many children ranging from flings to crushes to outright obsession and sometimes Love. Emotion on her own is healthy and she keeps the engine of relationships running. The kind we speak of in this note is when she ain’t mutual (or seemingly so). Emotion in this context: a state where your blood literally jumps out of your veins at the mention or sight of anything that concerneth the igniting party. Where you wait by your phone literally praying that a call comes in or you refresh your inbox like a gazillion times expecting an unsent message. Truth is, we have no control over these emotions; we don’t solicit for her birth. She just comes upon us suddenly. The only way out is managing her by putting her where she belongs. Oh yes there are solutions even if...
