it's been 4 years since i last kissed you goodnight, afi.

i still can't sleep on your side of the bed.
it feels wrong,
knowing that if it weren't for my stupid mistakes,
you'd still be here.

if i could dream enough,
you'd tell me i'll be just fine,
and that would be all i need.

but you won't tell me i'll be fine.
you don't want me to be fine,
and i get that.
i ruined you, i destroyed you,
and i understand that you'd want me to feel the same.

i'll never know how you felt when you woke up to the bed cold and the house empty,
but i do know how it feels to be empty inside.
