“I no longer ache for you.
I’ve stopped trying to find
you in others. There’s no
point. No one will ever come
in comparison to who you
used to be. I’ve been able to
picture the rest of my life
a lot more clearly, and I’m
proud to say that you are
nowhere to be found
when I am gazing into
my future. I’ve made mends
with the person you used
to be. Said goodbye to the
parts of you that you
wished away. The parts that I
fell in love with in the
first place. There is no use
in trying to talk me out of this.
Because I will already
be gone by the end
of this confessional poem.”
