My house never felt like home
So I used to look for it everywhere I'd go
I was used to that at some point
I guess I was even okay with never really founding that home
Then you came into my life
Your family treated me like I was already your wife
Your mother called me her child
And my heart would smile
Then I moved close to you
And started building something that could last
A safe space where nobody yelled
A nice little corner where I always felt held
I started to accept every setback
Because I finally had love that I've always lacked
I was turning into somebody with bright future
And my heart finally found a right suture
I glowed, I bloomed and I thrived
Sure it was hard but at least I tried
I finally let my long hold guard down
And for the first time I felt worth keeping around
Then one night you came to me
Telling me that can no longer be
Our story, our live and our future
And I swear I heard the rip of my hear suture
I told you to go
But deep down I didn't want to let go
Now it feels like the walls collapsed on me
And there's no future that I can see
So now I have 2 houses
But I don't have a home
And I'm again all alone
Feeling homeless with 8 walls
Is worse than it was with just 4

you’ll be ok
i really felt the part about having 2 houses but no home. after my breakup i kept walking around my apartment feeling like a ghost because the person who made it feel warm was gone.
when you picture “home” now, do you feel like you miss HIM most, or the version of yourself that existed when you finally felt loved and chosen?
I miss the version of myself and his family, I got really close with them and since they didn't do anything it's hard to just remove them from my life
god this hurt. i know that feeling of finally relaxing into someone’s family and thinking “oh… maybe i’m safe here.” when that gets taken away it doesn’t just feel like losing a relationship, it feels like losing the one place your nervous system could finally rest
the worst part is that his mother reached out to me after the break up telling me that she's still here for me but I don't feel okay with contacting her like I used to and I really felt at home for the first time
