I’m done. How many times I’ve said that word and betrayed the very essence of it. But there’s only so long I can hold on to our broken pieces before the shards imprint a permanent infirmity. No, I am not done. I will be, but i’m not. I’m just getting started. I might leave for a day and slip back for an hour; leave for two days and slip for some minutes; leave for a week and slip back for a few seconds. I’d keep leaving and slipping untill there is nothing left to slip back to- I have arrived at my destination and I am done, done with you.
But until then, I am just getting started…

Sometimes one finds strength in gradual redrawal. Your words run true to my personal experiences. I.like how you juxtapose the increase in time to the reduction on time spent dwelling.

You know, I love reading your analysis. I feel like, admitting, it’s alright to slip once in a while, makes it easier on the whole leaving behind process.

I guess that is why “give it time” became a comforting phrase.

This is great!…it speaks volumes on the process and reminds me of ….”two steps forward, one step back”
(seemingly for every attempt to make progress in a task, an actual retrograde performance is achieved.)

She is the most imaginative character of my life, my writings. So, I too am not sure if she is really a girl. 😀
