....
For months, maybe years, everytime you see her
You will want to kiss her.
When you do you will expect pain to come,
Like the old dog you could never quite put down,
But there will be none.
You will remind yourself, she will remind you,
You will remind each other that this is for the best.
That you are physically incapable of loving one another.
And in those moments you will be lying.
Your heart screaming, "I can! I can! I can!"
But you will stay silent
Because of her, because she asked for this,
Because she filled something in you thats still full
Even though she's gone.
