She believed…again

Image
There she was before take off, looking out of her window and observing all the other parked aircrafts around. She felt so small, so tiny, like she didn't matter, like she was nothing in this big giant world. Sounds a bit much, but I guess after ending a long term relationship all have different ways of dealing with their emotions. Some wander, some self blame, some doubt everything and some tend to link everything around them to their current emotional state. Post break up, there are always a few common thoughts that run into everyone's mind. Was breaking up the right decision? Was it a big enough reason to end things? Will I ever find anyone else?
