Three years after

by veejayrey

I will love you through the pain. I will love you through the silence. I will love you even across galaxies. But to what cost? How destroyed do I have to be for you to come back? How drunk do I have to get until the hole in my chest disappears? How high do I have to get until you're lost in the smoke? But even then, I will love you through the pain. I will love you through the silence. I will love you even across galaxies. But shouldn't it have gotten easier? Shouldn't I have been able to hear our songs without crying? Shouldn't I have been able to hear your name without wincing? Shouldn't I have been okay after eleven months of one sided conversations? But even then, I will love you through my pain. I will love you despite your silence. I will love you even across the galaxies placed between us. I will love you because I do not know how to stop.
