light the fuse and get away

“I will learn how to unlove you. I will try and detached my hand From its tight grip on yours Because we both know I’m the only One who is holding on. I will slowly put away the dreams I had for the both of us in the Uncharted part of my mind dedicated To things I named as “almosts.” I will not look at you like you’re a star And instead, I will stare at myself in the mirror Till I recognize that I am an entire galaxy. I will love the emptiness on the right side of the Bed you used to lay and never will I wish You were sleeping next to me again. I will learn to unlove you, trust me, I will. If one day you’ll come running back Hoping I would still welcome you With open arms, I will only smile at you And bid goodbye.”
