I thought being without you
would be a lot easier than this.
I never, for a second, thought
that it would be this ******* hard.
There are some easy days
where I can throw my head back
and laugh and I won't even think
of you for a couple of hours.
On nights like this I wake up
with your name on my tongue
and I can feel your lips
on every part of my body.
I swear I've tried so hard
to scrub them off of me
but I'm afraid there aren't
enough soap bottles to erase
the memory of you.
