"I Don't"
I cried today,
Because I let myself remember you.
I remembered the time,
We went to the movies,
And we had to bring my sister,
And you held my hand.
I remember how it felt when you told me you loved me,
And how it felt when you told me you didn't anymore.
And I put on my yoga pants,
That still smell like you,
And I cried,
Because I still remember when I had you.
But now you have her,
And no matter how much I lie to myself,
I know you still have me too.
Because I let myself remember you.
I remembered the time,
We went to the movies,
And we had to bring my sister,
And you held my hand.
I remember how it felt when you told me you loved me,
And how it felt when you told me you didn't anymore.
And I put on my yoga pants,
That still smell like you,
And I cried,
Because I still remember when I had you.
But now you have her,
And no matter how much I lie to myself,
I know you still have me too.

I wrote this a few months ago about my friend. Things are....different. He doesn't still have me but I wanted people to be able to read this. It's one of my favorite poems I've ever written. Comments are welcome. You won't offend me.
