you tell me
that i am cold
heartless
or in denial
for losing someone
and never speaking of them again
because it is not a possibility in your head
that i may have moved on
let go
accepted
you think i had emotional ties
and you are right to think such a thing
but in making the scene again and adding words
i find relief and comfort
in this...
this breath of fresh air
of course there's an absence in my life
they're gone
of course it hurts
i promised
of course i'm in denial
have you seen me?
or maybe i just simply let go
the minute i lost him
because it was not just him that i lost
but all of them.
and to let go
is to do
what he wanted
to accept
and let go
is what
they would
have wanted
i wish i could breathe
