i think one of the saddest
connections is the rebound relationship…
you’re using one person to try
to unlove another.

so there’s nothing pure or honest
in what that relationship is, or ever will be,
as you’ve carried into it an unhealed bond
to what was.

take time to cleanse, to heal, to renew,
to grow, to become.
