"Vannah"
Her little hands grabbed my face,
"Where does it hurt?"

"In my heart, little one"
I whispered back.

Her tiny finger pointed to my chest
And I nodded my head

"How do you fix it?"
She quietly asked

"I don't know yet, little one. I haven't figured that out yet."

At the end of the day
I can write a million times
How much happier I am without you
How terribly you treated me
Or how many new lovers I have who are better than you

But I'll miss you
In the quiet
When I'm alone
I'll always miss you
Despite the truth that we are not meant to be together
*I will always be missing you

When she walked by
They all stopped to whisper
"Didn't you hear? She's insane now"

But they always failed to mention
The boy that drove her there

They all warned me about you
Your charm is a legend to be reckoned with
But I said no way
He'll have no effect on me

But then you made me laugh
In a way I never had before
And you looked at me
In a way that made me weak
And at 4 am
With you nuzzled in my neck
I was absolutely helpless

In my most loneliest of moments
I wasn't alone

I hear your faint whisper
From in between these bed sheets
Taunting me always
With the memory of you

I liked to think we weren't fools
For believing it could've worked
But then again
This bed was too small
And my love was too big

And in a weird way
I owe you a thank you
Because in all the misery you caused
I found myself
