Because when you love someone that doesnt change just because its over.

Why cant I get over you?
Why can that text set off so many things that you were so sure you were over?
Brendan Church
Why is it that it brings up every single emotion that youve been suppressing?
Youre going to feel a tap on the shoulder, one you never thought youd ever have.
Hes going to say he was hoping to run into you and youre going to nod slowly.
A piece of your hair will fall into your face and hes going to brush it behind your ear.
Every sensation of loving him is going to come back but youre going to push it down.
Hes going to act like nothings changed even though everything has.

And youll be reminded of that when you see him continuously end calls that keep coming to his phone.
Youre going to remember that hes already moved on without you.
Hes going to tell you how hes not sure if hes happy.
Hes going to say he hasnt been happy since you two were together.
But you remind him that hes the reason youre not together.
The good ones anyway.
Youre not going to talk about how this new girl hes with started before you two even ended.
The night is going to wind down.
Youre going to look at each other and hes going to lean in and attempt to kiss you.
You almost for one second get caught up in it but instead you push him away.
You tell him to go home and you tell him to answer his phone the next time she calls.
You tell him how shes probably waiting up for him.
You remind him how that you used to be the one waiting for him right now.
Hes going to be silent and put his coat on.
Youre going to see numbers without a name associated with it but youre going to know who it is.
Its a simple sentence with a complicated answer.
But instead of answering, you finish your drink and go home.
Because you know that getting over someone requires you to move on without them.
