"Thank you."*

I whispered to the universe,
As you pulled me into your chest tighter while you were fast asleep.

There is a small scar
To the right of your bottom lip
A faint white line
Begging to be kissed

I go to the place I took you on our first date
I walk up the steps and hold the door open for myself
I sit down at a table for two but the other seat is never filled
I order the dessert we always shared and leave half untouched
I pay for myself
I walked past the park we laid in the night I realized I loved you
I get in the car and drive home in silence
I crawl into bed and fall asleep,
Alone

You were mine once
That is all I need to know

I think she fits you better than I did.
You needed a girl who was small enough to fit into the side of your chest and sensible enough to match your comfortable life.

You might say I was too much. But all I know is you were not enough.
