I felt so devastated in my last breakup. I decided to draw.

After 14 days, I came to terms and moved on.

Day 1

I yearn to offer my love the most precious thing I own, only to discover that my love has too much of this thingy.

Day 2

Do we have to twist ourselves, deforming our body and soul, just to merely connect with each other?

Day 3

You can consume my oxygen and emotions if you want. Unfortunately, you couldn’t contain it.

Day 4

We try to hug each other. Two hollow beings can only pass through each other though.

Day 5

One cannot hold anything that flows.

Day 6

Love is dissecting me.

Day 7

Some little hands are pulling me back into that somberness.

Day 8

Were we both fabricating our imaginary selves and let them love each other? It’s never about us probably.

Day 9

I thought we have passion feeling the burns, without realizing it’s cold fire.

Day 10

In reality, perhaps there was just a little spark confusing us with a smokescreen.

Day 11

How many times could I return with the remnant of love?

Day 12

Perhaps I just enjoy the act of giving.

Day 13

Even when I don’t have much to give, I’m still grateful for our encounter.

Day 14

Love is just clouded vision.

Time to move on.
