You're still out there

But in my mind it feels like you're dead.

My heart grieves you as much as it did

When one of my closest friends really did die.

I know how that sounds

How I'm downplaying his death

Because you're still alive

We ended, but it wasn't your end.

You're still here, or there rather

You didn't go anywhere.

You still live five minutes away,

I just can't come to your house, no matter how near.

I miss you dearly,

And my heart yearns for you

Part of me wants to throw away everything I have

To let it all go in hopes of a part two.

I wish we would have made it work

I hate feeling like we left it incomplete.

But maybe it's for the better

Maybe it was the only way to save me.

I hope that though I lost you,

And I lost all the dreams of you and me on a beach

That I gained something valuable

I hope I figure out how to be me.

I want to love and to laugh

I want to finally be content, to be satisfied.

But I think I have to move on

From this point on, I can no longer cry.

I have to put you in the past,

And never look back.

I have to just keep moving forward,

And it's you I have to thank, you taught me that.
