come
make me forget you

just
you
and
i
step close
look me in the eyes

see the fire in them?
it still burns your name
prepare to put it out

lean in
close
just close enough
to get my heart racing
and whisper
"i don't love you anymore"
like it's nothing
matter of fact
mundane
because that's all it is
right?

i am over you

head over heals
or over your existence

depends

i. when you're no longer excited to see them and the butterflies don't make an appearance, instead you feel empty

ii. when their flaws are no longer perfect, they're just that; flaws 

iii. when a future with them is no longer in your plans, it's just a silly thought you laugh at, something long gone

iv. when you no longer dream of them, but they might creep into your nightmares

v. when the space with them no longer feels comfortable, it feels like secrets are hiding, waiting to fall out

its hard not to wonder if i lost a true love or if i dodged a bullet letting you go, where's your head at
The Non-Poet May 2018
i love you
from my core
i love you
to the moon

but how is it
a love like ours

makes me feel
i've drowned
i'm sorry but i don't know what to do
