tugging hurts

I learned to ignore the tugging in my chest every time I saw your dimples in photographs.
Sometimes I press the call button & I hang up after about 2 rings, I don't know if you've noticed
Sometimes I feel like you took away a piece of me with you, I just want it back but I want you to be the one to deliver it, God knows what you're doing with it. Maybe you're looking at it right now or maybe its buried deep underneath the ground because you thought it was a burden needed to be put down
Either way, I don't think I'm ever getting it back, and it saddens me when you don't deserve a part of my weary self
God, when someone takes apart of yourself you can feel the ridge of a missing puzzle piece in the side of your chest which is a constant reminder you're not whole like once before even if I want I can't burn our photos and I can't forget there's a gap in my side
Yes, I've learned to ignore the tugging at my chest but it doesn't make it hurt any less.
