Without seeing the dimples on your cheeks,
And hearing you scurrying my way,
Knowing you are but a second or two
Away-
Knowing that you are no longer here,
And realize that there is no message
On my phone that says I miss you-
Or I love you,
This heart does not beat to your tone,
And my breathing doesn't speed up,
My eyes no longer shine as I think of
Your smile,
My hands never shake and open up
To hug anyone so tight and hold them
Just right-
Through the nightmares at night,
And the fears in daylight, I made it,
Without you,
Be gone from my heart, and my life
Which you left many months with
No care-
I will do alright, without your touch,
You were my habit, and I quit you
Today.
