Time to fly, Bug.

Today, the 11 days are over.

You packed up your bags,

Stepped foot out of your house,

And that was it.

Your life will never be the same again.

I've sent you multiple messages the past two days..

And had to get drunk just to do it.

I wish it wasn't this way..

Wish it was easier.

But its not, Bug.

We've never been easy.

But through it all,

I've love you,

And you me,

And I suppose that's most important.

Today was my favorite singers birthday,

And I planned to balls-to-the-wall celebrate.

but as everyone else was tAking shots in her honor,

I found I was taking them to numb the pain in my chest.

You see, I could feel you leaving..

I could feel the pull of the universe shift

From south to north.

I tried to drown you out with alcohol,

But when igot home,

I had to speak to you just once more.

I had to tell you how much I missed you already,

How much you had meant to me.

Even if it was futile..

Even if i swore to myself i could be strong,

It wouldnt hurt me to see you go..

Oh, but it did.

I know I'm not number one anymore,

And I can honestly say that I'm happy you've found

Someone who doesn't bring you down,

Someone so different from me.

I know its gonna be hard for you..

I mean Jesus Christ, Ive been bawling for

The better part of an hour.

But you can do it.

I believe in you.

I always will.

I will miss you so much.

And I don't care who thinks they know you better..

Former number one or not,

I know you,

And that may be the only thing that never changes.
