Don’t forget to tell people;
Don’t forget to tell people that you made this choice alone but long ago.
Don’t forget to tell them I wanted to keep working things out and grow as people together.
When your mom ask, don’t forget to tell her I said thank you for everything she ever did for us. Every meal, every prayer, every restock when we were without, thank her from me.
When your dad asks, don’t forget to tell him about your new achievements of taking on a lesser paying job, consuming caffeine to the rate that health professionals asked you to stop doing, and don’t forget the smoking so that when the next episode happens they know what’s been going on with your body so you can perhaps be treated well and appropriately.
When the friends that “don’t like me” ask how you’re don’t forget to tell them I’m not okay, so they can help boost your ego about the situation.
But when Mikayla asks, don’t forget to tell her I’m going to miss her a lot, and Remington.
Don’t forget I left the air pump next to the bed if it needs more air in it after it stretches.
Don’t forget to lock the patio door after you have therapy on Wednesday. I hate when it’s unlocked it makes me feel unsafe.
Don’t forget your butter mochi is on the counter, I don’t know if it can be out this long but I didn’t want to throw it away in case you wanted it still.
Don’t forget that since we are together anymore you don’t have to do my laundry or shop for 2 or tell me all your plans. It’s just transactional communication now
Don’t forget when you’re in the living room I’m most likely in the bedroom upset about exactly what you think I might be upset about, every time. But it’s much less mad than it looks in your head and much more sad irl.
Don’t forget I’m gonna cry most likely every night until I’m not sure when. It doesn’t matter where I am or you are though I’ve just started replacing sleeping with crying in any free time while I’m alone.
Don’t forget we signed a lease and it has 7 months left on it.
Don’t forget my favorite goldfish are the rainbow ones…
Don’t forget my gut knows everything.
Don’t forget I remember every ex you’ve spoken of, also I remember all those “friends” that don’t like me.
Don’t forget I’m most likely clever enough to figure out almost anything that’s happening around me.
But also don’t forget that I’m a chronic overthinker. I’ll be “spiraling” for a while coming up.
Don’t forget we have a queen bed, and that’s not quite enough for two people but it’s far too much for one person.
Don’t forget the times I made you smile… unless they’ve been deleted already.
Don’t forget the moments we shared when we were both really alone and scared to be that way.
Don’t forget last December parked at Joe’s Crab Shack eating CFA trying to piece together how we were gonna get to the next step.
Don’t forget everything works out for us.
Don’t forget we, gon be, okay…
