cancel out

when you break up with someone, do the bad things cancel out the good ones?

when i look at our memories

i wonder

 

do the bad things

cancel out the good ones?

 

because at some point,

you were the best thing

that happened to me in college too

 

you were my strength

i loved you dearly

we were happy.

 

i look at the messages you sent me

i browse through our photos

i go back to our places

 

they feel so foreign to me now

and i wonder

 

did the bad things

make me forget

the good ones?
