It still hurts
Seeing you
And I know it shouldn't
I know it was so
So long ago
But every time
I get choked up
And everything gets tight
And
I
Can't
Breathe
And I'm suffocating
With memories of you
and broken dreams
And discarded potential
I'm all consumed with
Regret
And I'm not sure if
I regret ever caring for you
Or if I regret
What could have been
But I can't seem
To let you stop
Hurting me
Because every time you
Enter a room
Or
I hear you name
I shrink inside myself
And let the walls close in
Around me
I've tried everything
I could think of
To let this go
But somehow you're there
And my heart refuses to forget
That it once loved you
So it still hurts
Every
Time
