after six months of rehab and
counseling, i was finally out
and able to live a fully functional
life. or so they told me.
they didn't know how i saw her
in everything, how i felt like
i could grab her hand if only
i wanted it hard enough
and they certainly didn't
know what it was like to
be forced to move on
from something so heartbreaking.
i didn't blame myself any
longer, no, i tried to
force myself to think
about the time we'd spent together.
but that only made my longing
for her stronger.
a longing i could never have
fulfilled.
