i've made it through a hundred pages
of grief and misery
of missing you
and moving on
i wish i could say that a hundred pages
of the words i could never say out loud
fixed me
saved me
but it didn't
a hundred pages later
and my heart still yearns for you
words are just a distraction
you're the only medication
