It's not a breakup, but still a loss.

Except, it's not exactly a

Loss, because you are still in

my life. You never left.

Sometimes I wish you

had. So I could

properly

grieve your

love.

    Aw! The in-between ones are the worst of the sad lot. In or out, the between is too confusing. Rip the bandage off and get it over with. I commiserate with you on that.

    Very sad and relatable. Many can definitely relate to that feeling of mourning something that never truly ended for good the way we sometimes wish it would have β™₯️
