how to get over it
do not imagine the years you could have
you know they will be terrible, but you will be together
it feels like enough
it’s not.
do not dream of long love letters begging for you back,
sad drunk phone calls in the middle of the night
you know it is too late for any of that to matter
do not look at other people with him still in your eyes
she is not small like him
his voice does not sound like his
these things do not matter
he does not matter
do not think of how he will survive without you
do not make yourself suffer so he can survive
do not make yourself suffer
so that he can survive.
