heartbreak

keep art alive; art by kelly vivanco

an excerpt from tiffanie debartolo's blog:

"I said yes to the question, but I was mistaken.

What I once thought of as heartbreak was actually yearning—that deep-rooted feeling you get when all you want is a chance.

Heartbreak is a bigger equation.
It's yearning minus hope plus the future.

It's never and forever and nothing all wrapped up into one crushing sensation.
It's when you get your chance and then you blow it to smithereens.
Or worse
someone else blows it to smithereens for you."

her words, the way she writes, they resonate so deeply with me.
