Every Day

Every day I wake up and realize you’re not holding me.
This was my own doing.
I remember how much has gone right for me since I left.
The decision to leave was the best decision I have made in a long time.

Every day after I left, you woke up in our bed, in our home, with all our stuff around you,
and realized you weren’t holding me.
I remember how hard you cried every day when we talked on the telephone.
You weren’t sleeping very well.
I took a certain amount of guilty pleasure in your pain.

Every day when I was packing up, I woke up and realized my days of waking up in your arms were numbered.
I remember how hard we cried when I was leaving.
We held onto each other so tightly, as if to make a permanent imprint on each other
so we’d never forget.

Every day when I was with you, I woke up with you holding me.
I remember how desperately I begged you to come with me.
I agonized over my decisions.
You never believed I would actually leave without you.

But I did.
