there are pieces of clothing in my dresser that I can't wear anymore without being reminded of all the times you borrowed them for warmth there are intersections all across my home town that I can't drive through without being reminded of all the times I met up with you there there are sights and sounds and colours that fill me with regret and if there is a way that I can forget I haven't found it yet

all i am to you now is the blue-white glow that lights up your face when my name flashes across your called ID after four rings it goes dark again it goes silent again and i'm out of your life and that's just the way you wanted it all you are to me now is the one phone call that i make out of habit every week or two after four rings it goes dark again it goes silent again and i get on with my life and that's just what i expected

its not the important things that stick in my head when I'm trying to get you out of it its not your face its not the fancy date nights its not the sex its not the sunny vacations it's the avalanche of tiny nonsense that i'm trying to keep from burying me its the sound of your laughter muffled under covers first thing in the morning when I'm trying to wake you up its the sound of your bare feet on the hardwood floor coming down the hall to meet me its all our stupid inside jokes that no one else knows that we'll never get to say out loud again
5.
there is a distance growing between where we are and where i want us to be and i just can't shake the feeling that this road is longer than i will ever reach the end of and i can only keep chasing for so long before my heart and my lungs give up on me i'm starting to not feel anything
6.
I'm already starting to lose the memory of what it feels like to be loved I know that it's all my fault but that doesn't stop it from feeling like this is all wrong I won't go back because there's nothing for me there but I'll try to remember how much we used to care how much I used to care
7.
you know that i tried to be what you needed but i have always been an underachiever so let's stop pretending that this is working for us let's stop pretending that this is working for either of us any of the time let's stop making each other miserable cause i can't keep feeling like hell for being a constant disappointment to you
8.
we've said everything we felt the need to say sitting on the floor of the bedroom that used to be our bedroom now the last box has been taped shut and the last painting that made me feel like i belong here has been taken off the wall it's only a 20 minute drive but it feels like a world away it's only the next suburb over but it feels like an ocean away did I deserve it, you know I know I deserved it give me life over death so many inanimate objects scattered everywhere that I know not what I own so hardened now, so hardened now I feel nothing strong becomes numb and happy becomes dead just like you my love, so hardened now, so hardened now I feel nothing it's only a 20 minute drive but it feels like a world away it's only the next suburb over but it feels like an ocean away
