getting over him was seemingly
never an option
love does not disappear,
love haunts you
love is the source of inexplainable flashbacks to nights that were simpler
us ending...we never ended
in my mind, you are alive
I can see the dimples reflecting the saddest smile
your smell is present at bougey department stores
I am never alone
but our love hibernated
nearly a year ago
yet I am holding onto memories of simpler nights
and embraces of comfort and affection
moving away did not rid me of your existence
you are always here
I am not angry that you have not yet left my mind
but I am angry that you refused to remain by my side
getting over you was a stupid thought
you will always be here
