How could it be over like this
How did it get so ugly
I know I can never go back
Pulled away from being increasingly miserable
But how did we get here
All the pieces missing now
Never together again
Parts of me lost forever
And I grieve the loss even as I feel the relief
Lonely but I was lonely with you too
Just familiar
And I’m adjusting like setting bones that broke long ago
And were allowed to heal off-center
Painful and necessary
Changed forever.
