“It feels wrong
trying to love already.
I should grief longer.
Keep the memories playing,
instead of fantasies.

I love you more,
you know that, right?
I whisper to the sky.
You always have a place here,
around the table, day and night.

It feels so wrong.
it feels so good,
that my eyes will meet another.
It gives me peace that your back,
next to your significant other.

Always in my heart, forever.
A piece I won’t remove.
Always in my DNA,
That wasn’t something I could choose.”

A.V.
