WHISPERS OF CHANGE

This is who i am when i am not inlove with you

By Jessica ShiorPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

I didn’t change; you’re just finally seeing what it looks like when I’m not in love with you.

You’ve never known me without the softness that love brought. You’re shocked that I’m not bothered by the communication.The cold replies and me not giving a damn about what you do,you are scared I’ve moved on and that’s something you can’t handle. It scares me too sometimes, just how little I care now. I used to think I’d always feel something, but here we are — and it’s all quiet on my end.

Maybe you think I’m cold, distant, ruthless. You think I’m ignoring you, but the truth is, there’s nothing left for me to pay attention to. You say I don’t stress about you anymore, don’t reach out, don’t try. And it’s true. Sometimes I wonder if I should fake it, just to smooth things over. But I’m not good at pretending — never was, never will be. I can’t force feelings I don’t have, and I won’t act for your comfort.

So, no, I didn’t change. This is who I am when I’m not in-love with you
