the lingering you

Ugh.
I know it was me
me who wanted this
but my heart aches
it breaks
because I miss you.
I miss your smile
you're silly little use of emoticons
and run on sentences.
 
You're respecting my wishes
and I should be happy
but it hurts.
makes me feel 
like I don't matter, 
even though I know
I still do.
 
The thought of you 
with someone else
scares me
hurts 
so much.
But I don't know why
because I want you
to find happiness,
love,
someone who loves you
just as you are 
this moment.
In a way that I can't.
or won't.
 
So know your in my thoughts
my heart
and my damn mind.
as you will always be.
 
I thank you 
for all that you've done for me
all that you have helped me through.
I am forever grateful.
I thank you for the showing me
the kind of love I deserve.
and that big muscles
and big dimples
can also mean big hearts
