It Hits Me – Heartbreak 01

I feel it all at once.
My chest tightens before I can respond.
Something shifts inside me and I feel it land.
I don’t understand it but I feel it arrive.
There is no space between it and me.

My breath doesn’t finish the way it should.
It stops halfway and stays there.
My body reacts before my thoughts can catch up.
Something is changing inside me and I can’t slow it down.
I feel it spreading through my chest.

It hits me.
Right here in my chest.
I don’t move away from it.
I don’t step back from it.

Pressure spreads through me slowly now.
My thoughts start to lose shape and hold.
I stay inside it without meaning to stay.
Everything feels close and far at the same time.
I can’t separate myself from what I’m feeling.
It keeps building without asking me.

It hits me again.
Right here in my chest.
I don’t move away from it.
I don’t try to change it.

I stop trying to explain what is happening.
I stop reaching for anything outside of me.
The feeling becomes the only thing I can notice.
It sits in my chest and doesn’t leave or soften.
My body carries it even when my mind goes quiet.
There is a weight I can’t release or name.
Time slows but nothing inside me stops moving.
I realize I’m already inside something I can’t undo.
I stay in it because there is nowhere else to go.
I don’t resist it anymore, I just remain here.

It hits me again.
Deeper now than before.
I feel it fully in my body and my breath.
And I don’t turn away from it.
I don’t leave it or fight it.

I stay here in it.
Still inside the moment.
Nothing has resolved or changed.
Only the feeling remains, and I remain with it.
