Sharp Pains

Chanelle Pina

Who knew that just one person can make the hair on your arms and the back of your neck stand up? They can make your stomach turn in knots and do back flips and make you run to the bathroom multiple times before you leave to meet up with them somewhere. It’s crazy how when you’re with them, their touch, even the slightest, can induce the most thrilling surge throughout your being. Let’s not mention their beautiful gaze; a starry galaxy of colors swooshing together to create the most mesmerizing look you’ve seen all your life. You, my friend, are in love.
And as quickly and beautifully as this comes, it does go away. This time the thought of seeing them in public somewhere makes your throat dry. At the mention of their name, your tummy lurches into your throat and your sinuses sting. It’s crazy how the last time you were together, you thought it was going to last so much longer, perhaps forever. And now this thrill you once sought is only but a thought. It’s such a damn shame that you gave so much of yourself for crumbs in return. Yourself that wasn’t even enough for you to have, let alone give. That my friends, is the truth behind love. Oh what a shame, the thought of your once dearly beloved, the mention of their name only brings your shattered, heavy heart sharp pains.
