When you left, I fantasized about the moment I’d see you again. 

Perhaps the next time you see these eyes, they won’t be crying anymore. The next time you hear this heartbeat, it won’t be in sync with yours anymore.

And maybe then, if I’m good and I eat my vegetables and drink my milk at night, you wouldn’t know that I still care about you. Tell me about the lives you’ve lived without me. Tell me it was worth it in the end.

Because right now it doesn’t seem like it ever will be. Tell me how I survive.
