I shouldn't be in the shower at 4 A.M. trying to scrub your touch from my body and your words from my head.

I shouldn't be laying in bed every night trying to find a part of me where your fingers haven't been.

I shouldn't have to watch you be happy with another soul while mine has been lost since the day you left me.

I shouldn't have to listen to my music at maximum volume trying to drown out your voice from months ago telling me you love me.

I shouldn't have had to lose you.

You should've stayed.
If I didn't love you
I wouldn't be crying myself to sleep
And wake up just to cry.


If I didn't love you
I wouldn't be this numb
Because I've been hurt too much.


But I know,

If I didn't love you
I wouldn't even know
What love itself was.


If I didn't love you
*I wouldn't know
The world is beatific.
