falling out of love by V. Stafford

“it'll be okay” 

he was my everything 

“you’ll get over it” 

i hope 

“it only hurts this bad at the beginning” 

it’s been a month 

when will the tears dry 

when will the memories fade 

---------------------------------- 

when will i see him again 

when can i hold him like i did 

i'm gonna call him 

“that's not a good idea” 

i'm rereading the texts 

“you shouldn’t do that” 

if i tell him i’m in love now, we can go back to normal 

“let him go” 

---------------------------------- 

i’m trying 

to un-see the sparkle in his eyes 

to un-feel his gentle touch 

to un-hear his velvety voice 

to un-taste his smooth lips 

to un-smell his favorite cologne 

but i'm trying 

and that’s all i can do
