Why am I not over you yet?
It's been almost two months since you decided you needed space,
And I'm still struggling to get over you.
You had all of me,
You knew the stories behind my scars,
You knew my feelings in my darkest times, and helped the light in my eyes grow.
And when you left me, you took that with you.
It hurts that someone I once cared for relentlessly, left me so easily.
And it feels like you never cared,
And despite how much you say it,
I will never believe you loved me,
Because if you did, you wouldn't be able to do this to me.
Every time I see you,
It's like my heart is being ripped out my chest,
And for a second I can't breathe,
Because every memory we have had flashes before my eyes.
And then I remember,
You are now a stranger.
I no longer know you.
You don't know what's happening in my life anymore so why do I still care?
You broke me, no, shattered me into pieces that you then proceeded to stomp on, and yet I still care, I'm still not over you.
How can I not be done?
