The days go by, but they don’t count
I struggle so much just to live
Drunk
On this scent so different from yours
Worse
I counted every minute
That keeps me tied to her
As if I were my own prisoner
It’s been almost a year since she saved me
From you
Often I wonder where I’d be
Because of you
Often I wonder
What you’re doing, where you are, who you love
Get out of my thoughts
I changed my address, my number
Thanks
I threw away your letters and your flaws
Even if
I pretended I’d found the strength
Deep down inside me
I keep all the love you gave me
I try to forget you with someone else
Who vainly tries to make up for your mistakes
I try, but nothing works
I can’t, I don’t want to, I just can’t do it
I don’t love her like I loved you
She—
She tried to comfort me
Even if
She doesn’t have your words or your past
It’s true
But she doesn’t have your taste
For parties, for the night, for others
For everything I hate
She dried all my tears, you know
She picked up the pieces you broke
And she paid all
Your unpaid debts, your lies, your erasures
Everything you left me
She loves me like a madwoman
She knows me by heart
She tells me “I love you”
Sometimes for hours
But she doesn’t carry your scent
Why
Do I breathe you in
While I’m in her arms?
