When you end a relationship
It’s not the person you lost
That hurts.
Are the parts of yourself that you lost
What really hurt you.
Like for example
You have to teach yourself
To start watching that TV show
That you watched together everyday,
Without crying…
And if he always called you
“Amazing”
You have yo teach yourself to hear it
From someone’s else voice
Without your body shaking.
And with all the memories
You have to teach yourself that
This was just another bad story
Which let you drown in misery.
And you have to start loving
Yourself
Again!
But than, you remember
That it took you more than twenty-something years
to feel good on your own skin
and now it will be even harder
with his fingerprints on it…
(-breakups really suk)
