“I promise when you meet your new girl, you will look for me in her. You will search for traits of me. Whenever she plugs her phone into your aux cord and its not my music or when she doesn’t call you at night to see if your okay. She won’t grab your shirt the same way when you kiss, and maybe you won’t catch her staring at you when you drive. You’ll wonder why she doesn’t sigh like me when she’s stressed or text you at 4 in the morning when she’s having a nightmare. And when you mess up again, like you always do. I know that will hit you the hardest that she’s not me, because maybe she won’t try to stick around. Maybe she won’t try to understand you. Maybe she will be able to hate you like I couldn’t. No matter what she is, she’s not going to be me.”
