The biggest relief after losing someone like you
is realizing I'm smiling just as big in the pictures without you, too.

See this photograph was key
to realizing you weren't a miracle, miracles are free.

Sitting shotgun to this heartbreak scene
it doesn't take a Polaroid to remind me what you no longer mean.

I'm smiling just as big in the pictures without you, too
a reminder all people aren't a permanent tattoo.
