Youve forgotten the person you were before them.
The person who dreamed, the person who knew their worth.
Its been weeks, months, maybe even years, since things have changed.

Timothy Paul Smith
The text messages that used to put a smile on your face.
The late-night phone calls you stayed up and waited for.
The inside jokes that never got any less funny.

Timothy Paul Smith
The videos they tagged you in whenever something reminded them of you.
The kisses that always left you wanting more.
They all stopped coming through-gone for good.
But, that hasnt stopped you from re-reading every old conversation a hundred times.
It doesnt erase the taste of their lips from your memory.
The person you thought you knew inside out has become just another stranger.
And it hurts like hell, because how can everything turn into nothing just like that?
Because how could you have ended up being so wrong about someone you thought you loved?
But the truth is, people change.
They arent the same person thats been living in your mind for all this time.
They arent the same person that promised you a future.
They arent the same person that you let yourself fall for.
And nothing you do will ever change that.
You want to think that history will repeat itself.
But, youre hoping for another what if instead of seeing what is.
Because the truth is, people come and go for a reason.
Not everyone is meant to stay in your life, and thats okay.
Theyve consumed your mind in the worst way possible.
Youve torn down parts of yourself to build them castles.
Youve forgotten the person you were before them.
The person who dreamed, the person who knew their worth.
Because while people may come and go, you are your own constant.
You are strong enough to say goodbye to things that arent right for you.
You are able to survive the toughest of heartbreaks.
You will find your path to happiness, whether others are there to join you or not.
