When you left, I thought it would hurt. Thought you'd rip out my heart and ruin my world. I thought I couldn't function without you by my side. That I wouldn't get out of bed for days at a time. But this morning you're not here and for the first time in years I don't dread getting out of bed. In fact, I want to. That maybe I'm not sick or anxious all the time. Maybe it's just you that makes me feel nauseous. I thought my world would crumble but things are getting easier. Breathing is easier it seems more smoother. And for some reason I can't stop smiling and I feel like dancing. And now that I think about, I only loved you because I had to.
