I want you to remember how long you stared at your phone hoping it would ring only it didnt.
I am still a firm believer in that.
Some come back because they miss the past and wonder if youd answer.
Jesse Herzog
Some realize the mistake they made and want to make it right.
And some come back for good.
And theres no telling when someone will return or why.
So when they come back I ask you to remember a few things.
How hard you cried during that final conversation.
How they broke trust which binds every relationship.
How difficult that conversation was to sit there and listen to.
How confused you felt in that moment as tears welled up behind your eyes.
But most of all I dont want you to forget how easily they left without looking back.
The pain you got used to.
I dont say this to hold a grudge or to remain angry.
Because I also want you to remember other parts too.
How you had to pick yourself up again.
How you had to be strong when you felt so weak.
How you chose to love despite an example of love countering its meaning.
How you had to forgive even when the words sorry were mute.
How you had to learn to love yourself again.
