Simply Being

you don't cross my mind as much anymore
you don't linger in my heart
or in my bones anymore

i don't lay awake thinking of you anymore
i don't wait on a call or a text
i don't wait at all anymore actually
i simply be
without you .

tonight though
you're on my mind
why ?
i'm not sure
sometimes i do catch myself remembering
us together
our false happiness
and my false dreams
but
tonight is different
tonight i am simply just thinking of you
no memories
just you.

it's strange really
how i've been hurting over you for some time
healing from my mistake to trust
and your disrespect
i feel no hatred towards you
i still hurt thinking of you
which i suppose i always will
but
tonight i don't feel sad
i'm not sure what i feel
i'm just simply being.

tonight you are on my mind
and that's ok
because i'm healing.
