Falling out of love

 I once read somewhere that there is something more powerful than falling in love.
It is falling out of love.
But what is falling out of love? I used to wonder.

Until one day I knew.

Remember the sparks you feel whenever this particular person talks to you?
Remember how it makes your heart pound so hard and your eyes pop like they want to come out?
Yeah it's just not going to be there anymore.

It is indeed scary & painful to think about but it is actually very easy to go through.

One day one small thing led you to a disappointment and then it grew bigger and bigger.
You used to feel hurt until one day you don't.

You learned how to live without them and you got so good at it.
Before you know it, their existence is not relevant anymore.

They stop being the first person you want to share you bad news or good news to.
It's just that you do not have the reason to share anything with them anymore.
It's like it doesn't matter if they exist in your life.

You might remember all good and beautiful things you used to do together but it is not worth anything anymore.
It's just another memory as you know it.
You might smile but then that's it. No nothing.

It sounds awful but trust me, it almost feels like you go through nothing.
