Roots

I don't want to think about you
but you always come up
Whenever I feel like I've moved on then your scars are keeping me up.

I start to feel anxious again
because of the trauma you brought
You cut the wounds so deep
Because of what you sought
that now
The wounds sway over my actions
Even if only in small fractions of the cost

I try to dig up the roots so
I can get rid of the plant you left behind
Because I don't want to be reminded of you or
the moments you left behind too
I don't want to remember that
I even loved you.
