back in those days, everything as simple. i saw butterflies and beautiful flowers and blades of grass, gently pressed down by bare feet and laughter.
it wasn't until he left that i wished i could be a butterfly.
i'd leave this place and never come back.
now things are only weighed down by the strength of my regrets and i can never truely forgive him for walking out on me.
some days, i can only escape by confining myself and staying numb.
this is what he did to me, this is who i am because of him and it's okay, even if i'm not.

This is so beautifully written sweetie and it's so heartbreaking to read.
I'm sure I say this every time, but I feel like I can relate to this so much.
"some days, i can only escape by confining myself and staying numb."
^^^^^That seems to be the only way I know how to deal with things =/
I want to try to write shorter prose pieces sometime. You do such an amazing job with them. There's so much power in the emotions here and they really pull at your heart.
The last line is so sad, but perfect.
I love you sweetie and I wish everything was better.
