The Break Up

I spent several hours looking at the flower expecting to trigger something inside of me. I played with the pic, I changed the colors, I butchered the thing in the editor and nothing happened. My mind slipped away and started to make a fantastic story about everything else but the flower and I was so amused that I didn't even bothered to write it down. The photo was looking at me, demanding attention but I said "I'll do it tomorrow" and went to see the ending of the series I was watching.

Here I am today, still not feeling a thing. Still not wanting to write, still creating a thousand scenarios in my head that my lazy self don't wanna write. I looked at the calendar and saw is Wednesday, a sight escaped throught my lips and my eyes looked the other way. The flower keeps waiting for me to pay attention to her but she lost my interest long time ago. I sipped my coffee while I saw my laptop frozen... the same way my brain gets frozen when I look at the flower pic. This is not procrastination, this is not laziness... I just don't feel a thing for this flower and she knows it! I looked with certain level of pity to the poor photo and said "Hey... you can't force love, honey! I think is time to see other people... its not you, its me!"... She looked at me silent, I could feel her disappointment in me. Breaking up a relationship is never easy!

I'm natural, that's why I end up my relationship with the flower!

@blacklux the flower is heartbroken, I see it even cried a tear. Maybe tomorrow you will rethink and have good words for the little flower.

No, no... I broke up with her, I don't wanna give her false hopes! :D

For not having anything to say about your flower, you said a lot. I enjoyed that quite a bit. Plus, the old "it's not you, it's me". Those dreaded words of any romance, even for a short-lived flower. That and "we need to talk". My heart just sank to the depths of 'uh oh'. Sometimes the writing 'stuff' just doesn't surface, no matter HOW long you stare at a photo. Wouldn't it be nice to have a mind recorder, to get all that wacky stuff down, before it goes away? So fleeting, like those flowery romances.

Your first pic reminds me of the Flowers of the Seven Planet series I did on here YEARS ago. My oh my, how time flies, when it goes on by. Hope your day is not too hot and ideas spring forth like all those lizards and chickens that visit you on a regular basis.

You can't force love! Haaa
Sometimes it doesn't matter how much you want or try if the flow is dead you just can't do a thing! And if the flow is stucked then I have to break the relationship 😅
