Sometimes I wish we never

Sometimes I wish we never met

Because if we didn't,

You wouldn't have left me.

I wouldn't have to lie everytime I get asked if I moved on.

I wouldn't have to cry myself to sleep for weeks on end.

I wouldn't have a reason to go get shitfaced drunk every weekend.

I wouldn't have to wake up to a broken heart and an empty bed.

But in the midst of my drunken thoughts,

I realized that if we didn't meet,

I wouldn't know how to love someone more than you love yourself.

I wouldn't know what I deserve and what I don't.

I wouldn't be able to say that I overcame one of the worst pains that you'll encounter throughout life.
