Just How Much

I definitely lost myself along the way

And rebuilt myself hard and strong

But that’s not the emotion I want to behold

I like caring, even if it hurts

More times than not

Because it proves to me it was all real

In the moments when I almost believe

It was all just a dream

That ache in my heart

The emptiness between my fingers

Those cold sheets in my bed

Reminds me that those places were once occupied

Occupied by you

So I’m okay with the pain

I know I could be strong

But I’d rather not be

Because the memories are worth the pain

Worth that emptiness

Sometimes holding onto the past

For far, far too long

Shows not just how much I lost

But also how much I gained

How much I’d learned about the world

And myself

And you

So I won’t ever regret any tear

or any year-old locked message

Saying that you love me

Because that was true love

And this is what it feels like

To lose true love

So tear me apart

Bring your wrathe

Let it all out, God

Because I won’t ever get tired

Of aching for someone like you

Strong in loving ways the pain of love when its time to move forward and try to get along with out the one you were in deep love with the heartache will be healed and the pains of love subside once you make it to the other side.
