and your pain as an active volcano.
He has taken from you and gone.
And your pain is erupting inside you.
But even hurricanes and volcanos
have a point where they end,
and so will the memories of him
that haunt you and your pain.
But you my dear, you are an ocean.
And oceans are ancient
and can survive everything,
even the wrath of weather and planets.
Just like you will survive losing
what you thought would be a forever love.”
