I’ve been holding my breath
too many nights in a row
Trying to move onward
but my progress is slow
I keep thinking I’m fine
that I am finally sane
But then I catch a glimpse
and I relapse again
You’re like a drug to me
an endorphin injection
I remember the past
our affection—perfection
But now you are not here
and that brightness is long gone
I see from a distance
exactly how you moved on
