I think the worst part about falling out of love with someone is realizing you're falling out of love with them.323Please respect copyright.PENANAYzUabflUWY
You so desperately try to seek out and repair these small mistakes, but the cracks get bigger, and you begin to just step away, not caring about the small cracks or the repercussions of ignoring these small things.323Please respect copyright.PENANAdqyR92DtME
Someone you wanted to build with is suddenly across town, your house in the middle, and you are in a completely new place, or perhaps one of you stayed in the middle of the town, stayed in the house of "us," and it is killing them watching the cracks form, the ceiling cave in, or perhaps feeling the foundation quack and shake as it begins to crumble.323Please respect copyright.PENANAypQBoArGTk
I sit, I pace, and I keep revisiting this place. The key still fits, but reality is sinking in rather quickly. Our once-happy pictures no longer bring me bliss; instead, they are sending me into distress.323Please respect copyright.PENANA4HhghkX34k
We built this place, here in the middle of town, so all could see us build and grow. We didn't prepare for when people would watch us crumble; we prepared for people to watch us grow a family, achieve all our dreams, and live in martial bliss, but alas, time chose another plan that we did not foresee.323Please respect copyright.PENANAYS0Y5pBUUn
In five continuous years, we built foundations, walls, windows, doors, and floors. We built it all even when you were away. I kept building us, making sure it'd be comfortable for you and we'd fit, but now it is beginning to disappear into the rearview mirror of this moving truck.323Please respect copyright.PENANA9uItNdI3FJ
This was not the plan, but we both moved out—new houses, new people, new memories, new lives—both on opposite sides of town, a half empty glass for each because we can no longer fill each other's cups; dull and numb is all that is left.323Please respect copyright.PENANA2QO9JsklUS
Watching as the house tumbles and the earth swallows us whole, I'll give one last sorrowful glance to the plot of "us" before I step back inside to my place on the opposite end of town. Inside there lay boxes of keepsakes, memories, and items. I load them into a moving truck and move yet another distance away.323Please respect copyright.PENANAV9qRy4vsQp
The more space I put, the further you and "us" get, and the further I move, the further you'll never see me again, so I'll start over, pack up everything, move away far, and you can sit and stay in the ruble and ruins of "us," for I loved you but you ruined my life.
