I don't check my phone & emails For signs of you anymore Unknown caller, withheld number It's not you - Of that I'm sure.
I no longer hesitate to ask you Before I make decisions Now, in life, the plans I make Are my choice And that's a given.
I sleep diagonally across my bed I don't reach for you in the night The insomnia that plagued me when you left Has vanished out of sight.
When your name comes up in conversation I'm calm & nonchalant Ensuring my surrounding peers Know it's no longer you I want.
My life has moved on, and really, I'm happy Now I'm free of all the heartache I've made some fuck ups in the past
But you were my one 'perfect mistake'
So I check my stitches daily The ones I crafted to mend my heart I'm fearful that just the scent of you Could tear my handiwork apart
They say that time heals all wounds But I've heard that one before It's two years on.. Seems a lifetime's passed...
And I couldn't miss you more.
