Today the air is stale
Recycled phrases echo in conversation
They ask me how I am
I shrug
"I'm good" I say
Because yesterday I was good
Yesterday the air felt fresh
Yesterday I didn't feel my ribcage trying to hug my heart back into place
Even if yesterday didn't have you
Some days are a lot easier than others, I'll admit that
Some nights you never cross my mind
But, holy cow, when you do
You walk on wet concrete, leaving the deepest imprinted path in every cortex
Your paths trace through songs and family members
And all through my phone
I wonder if I should delete the pictures
Or just run back to you all together
Sometimes I wish I was weaker so I could..
Or maybe stronger?
If you love something, let it go
And if it's meant to be, it will come back
These words are too much
The concrete isn't as thick as I make it out to be
I'm doing okay
And I hope you are too
I guess I just wanted to say that I still think of you
And I miss you
Oh and I wanted to add
Hiding your emotions solves nothing
And wearing them on your sleeve in dangerous, so
Now it's the time to find people you can trust
And show them your heart, because that's what matters
Forever yours,
Jane
