I Promise

The goodbye I never knew I needed.

Although it is hard and I do not want to, I promise you I will try. I promise I will do everything I can to keep you off my mind. I promise I will not wait for your text, I will not look into the window of every black truck I see, I promise to avoid your street every chance I get.

I promise not to listen to sad songs that explain every detail of our past. I promise I will not speak of you to my friends, I promise to never believe your lies again.

I am going to move on, I am going to be free. I won't feel crazy, I won’t feel like I missed out. I will be content with my heart being mine and mine only.
