One Year
in 4 days it marks a year since you left.
i can’t lie to myself anymore because i know you are existing somewhere out there without me.
i can’t lie to myself that i don’t miss you or that the ache is getting worse.
the unbearable nature of remembering is closing in on me and taking the oxygen out of the room. i got very close to having everything i ever wanted.
so close but so far.
