It’s been nearly two months,
and I’m finally starting to move on.
I cherish what we had for what it was
and no longer expect anything more from you.
I’m at peace with the inevitable
and won’t force you to inhabit my loneliness.
I can be on my own without feeling alone
because I’ve never been by myself.
I will not be jealous of others’ relationships
as I wait in preparation for my last love.
I shall give you your space and rest
in the fact that we had something special.
Just because it’s over doesn’t mean
it didn’t matter to you.
I know now that it was love,
and you’ll always be my first love.
