He broke my heart. Who knew a rebound girl like me could be so blind? But I fell for his smile. I fell for his beanie and smooth words. I fell for his skateboard, music, art, and photographs. I fell for it all. And it hurt more because it all reminded me of her. Maybe he was a rebound boy. But it doesn't matter now. It's over. And it left my heart numb.
But today I am starting over. My heart aches for someone, any one, that I can hold and be mine. For someone who will hold me and call me theirs. So I will relearn. Retrace my steps so I end up at the start of this race. Today, I will relearn to love.
I am taking hold of my emotions again. Taking hold after they ran amok around my head. I am taking control of what hurt me for so long. So that it can't hurt me anymore. So that it won't hold me so close so that I can't breathe. "Help" is no longer needed in my vocabulary. Because I'm okay. I am learning again.
