I still miss you but it’s different this time. It’s different because I’m not waiting for you to come back anymore, I’m not waiting for things to go back to how they were. I can’t reach out for you anymore because you’d pull away when the old you would’ve pulled me closer and that still breaks my heart. I can’t bring myself to reach out to you because I can’t take the hurt I feel when you take yet another step back. I’m stronger now and I can keep my distance. But I do still miss you even though I know things can’t go back. I still miss you but it’s different, because this time, I only miss the memories of you and not the person standing right in front of me.
I still miss you, but one day I won’t.
the truth... and it hurts
