To be honest, I try really, really hard not to think about you, but somehow, someway you come to my mind and I find myself thinking about you every now and then even though I know you no longer hold feelings for me and it’s so, so bittersweet for me because I’m telling myself it doesn’t hurt. It doesn’t, but at once, I know the pain will hit me once I learn to accept the fact that it does hurt. I just don’t know when I’ll accept it, but I know I wasn’t good enough for you, but I tell myself that it’s okay because I’ll be good enough someday for someone. Then again, I shouldn’t let myself be good enough for someone someday. I should do it for myself, but it’s hard when I’ve been told all my life that I’m never enough. I’m constantly striving and I’m constantly hurting, but I try to let the hurt make me grow to become a stronger person, but I realized how much it numbed me to feel things I should feel. It numbs me to the point where when all my emotions unravel, everything hurts twice the first time it did and that’s the misfortune of it all. I miss you when I feel like I shouldn’t and I like you a whole lot, when I shouldn’t and I just feel foolish and silly, but I haven’t cried over you. I haven’t cried because I refuse to allow myself to. It’s not worth my tears, but it’s going to hurt later. I know it. I miss you terribly and this is terrible, but I’ll get over this too because all painful phases pass someday soon.

You look just like your father: split face portraits of family members
Ulric Collette is a photographer from Quebec. He studied art and graphic design at school and currently works as an art director for Collette, an advertising studio in Quebec City.
In this series, called Genetic Portraits, Ulric splices together portraits of family members to explore genetic similarities.
From parents and their children, to twins, siblings and cousins, the series is fascinating, and just a little bit spooky.
The project was shortlisted for a Cannes Lion.
Visit genetic.ulriccollette.com to see the entire collection.
so cool!
