Waves of pain – recent breakup…

In this moment I can feel a void – it’s like stomach butterflies but it’s in my heart. My mind is desperately darting around for a fix- a nummy food, a juicy text, any hit of dopamine please… but I choose to refrain. This too shall pass. Is this because of my current life situation? My crossroads? Or is it because the prefix “ex” is now applicable to an additional important person in my life? Those two little letters are like a harsh life sentence, or a chronic condition. It’s my choice though, moving on and looking up. But let’s feel this feeling, for it is rare and special. Breathe through the waves of inner nausea.
