I have avoided them or pushed them away.
Ive covered them with distracting thoughts and pointless entertainment.
Ive covered you with mindless bodies and heartless conversations.
Tracey Hocking
Ive avoided talking about you and complaining when you arent there at the end of the night.
You see, Ive done everything in my power not to miss you.
However, tonight, I have to let myself miss you.
I have to let myself remember that the love we had was genuine and organic from the start.
I have to let myself miss your everyday sneakers and your amazing laugh.
Tonight, Im letting myself miss you.
Im putting aside the drama and the heartbreak and the never-ending circles to actually miss you.
Im letting myself miss youbecause you were a real person.
Im letting myself miss you because you brought more love into my life than I had ever experienced.
Im letting myself miss you because what we had was beautiful.
Im letting myself miss you because what you left me with was broken pieces to restart my life again.
Im going to do the exact opposite of what everyone suggests, just for tonight.
Im not going to go out just to cover up the pieces of you that Im trying to forget.
Im not going to distract myself.
For once, since the end,Im letting myself miss you.
