Dear girl,
Remember when you were a little girl, all bubbly and having a pinky mindset of your own?
Remember your first crush and how you felt all excited and hopeful about it?
Remember the first boyfriend and how you thought you’ll last forever?
Remember the first disappointment, the first heartache and how deep it’s carved in your heart?
Remember how you got through it and how you wore your scars proudly as trophies?
Remember seeing friends getting places without even slightly scratched or hurt the way you did. And you keep asking yourself, why me?
Remember keep going for more heartaches, and finding pleasure in pain?
Remember insecurities and not-so-cool baggage you held around for so long?
Remember fitting yourself to the single-person comfy bubble, and finding a magical consolation in solitude?
Remember pushing good people away and messing up your relationships, just because you couldn’t trust or believe anymore?
Remember being lost, being apathetic, and taking a stroll in the denial land?
Remember the present that you can’t seem to be able to handle anymore because you’re lost, because your experience made you wiser but wearier, because you’re too emotionally drained to handle your own messes?
Dear girl,
You gonna hit the rock bottom and will rise again when it’s your right time, because timing is everything.
I can sense every single word u just wrote.
Love it…!
I know babe, you're not alone.
I must admit I like this series of letters, and I like how you address with “Dear girl,” made me feel like it's her heart speaking, which also gave me the feeling of how lonely she is..
Kinda sad, touchy, and the line of hope in the end was the cherry on the cake. Nice one Marwa!
Syntax remark: “Remember keep going for more heartaches, and finding pleasure in pain?” I'm not sure if it was intended to ask if she remembers something that STILL happens and WILL happen in the future, just something I noticed not necessarily a mistake
Thank you for your feedback and your encouragement, am glad a guy felt and got what I'm coming from =)
About your remark, I understand what you're trying to say. Thing is, that usage of the word 'remember' is aiming for her past, and somehow her future, as she will keep on doing that until she's not. It's also a notion of consistency to the girl's world, they never get enough of heartaches.
That's such a lovely honest post. It reminds me of a song called the Middle it goes like
“It just takes some time, little girl, you're in the middle of the ride, everything everything will be alright, everything everything will be just fine.”
Keep writing!
Thank you, Noor. Those feedbacks make me happy, and encourage me for some further writings =)

timing is every thing
It is, but also we can’t deny how it feels in the process.
