Moving on is different than forgetting

I can still remember that vibrant sunrise

You promised me forever

I let your face become my everything

And your every word consumed me

You promised me forever,

You thought I would forget?

I wore my favorite sweater that day

I do not wear it anymore

You thought I would forget,

That you were my raft in this vast ocean

How can I forget the very thing that grounded me?

I did not realize that I needed you, but you never needed me

You were my raft in this vast ocean,

but I have grown accustomed to drowning

I cannot breathe without you

The water made it hard to see beyond you

I have grown accustomed to drowning

How else do you think I learned how to swim?

I remember that sunrise from day one

But the next day, I saw a brand new sun
