Too Attached To You

You only know you love someone when you let them go. That is what this poem is based upon.

No matter who it was I kissed,

I never felt the feeling I now miss.

I didn’t feel the electricity flowing through my veins.

I couldn’t feel it because I was in pain.

I missed you and I didn’t even notice.

I even reread the books I wrote of us.

And with every line I read I felt more less there.

I felt empty like a ghost when no one sees their stare.

I couldn’t help but wonder if my baby had moved on.

But now for me to call you my baby would be wrong.

I can see that there is another receiving those sweet sweet kisses of yours.

And I see that now you love her past me and more.

I guess I shouldn’t care, for the decision to leave was mine to choose.

But the truth is… I can’t stop loving you.
