Now That You’re Gone

You've been gone a while now

I guess it should have been plain,

That even though you left,

I would grow out of the pain.

I no longer miss you

When walking in the wood.

That was something hard

And I had no idea I could.

When I wear my sneakers,

You do not cross my mind.

Maybe this is wrong or something

But it's nice to not pine.

I can watch Doctor Who

And not cry for your laugh.

I also don't forgo

Watching new episodes on your behalf.

I don't see you dancing

Whenever I watch Rio.

Or hear you sing

When I listen to the radio.

I stopped crying.

I stopped waiting for you to come back.

I am finally letting go.

My life is is back on track.
