Remember back when we were strong?

I guess our love was fire,
But it singed the rope tying us together,
The very thing keeping our minds close,
But our bodies were 1,578.59 miles away (I wonder how many lovers have been so far apart, or if our dead ass towns have ever collided like that before?).

We used to swear on forever,
But how do we even know what forever is?
Forever surely wasn't 15 years of life.
How do we understand something beyond the intuition our brains are wired with?

What happened to being strong?
We broke,
Spiraling away from each other,
Covered in flames.
And you burned me the hell down.

Oh god, I don't want to die alone..

Please tell me I won't die alone..

It's so unfortunate you won't be there to even see it, assuming you'd maybe care. But if you cared, you wouldn't ignore my texts. It's not like you have a reason to care, though.. I'm better, right? And I'm over you.

But here's the thing;
You move on.
But you never forget.
You'll always hold on, even if you hate it.
Your eyes don't stop scanning a crowd for them.
Your mind doesn't stop connecting things to them.
You remember the name of those songs you shared,
And your heart can't quite take it.
You'll always find that song that takes you back.
You always discover things that remind you of them.
So yes,
It's true that you move on.
But to forget the things we once loved as humans-
That,
Is impossible.
