“always be kinder than you feel”

Second Nature

I don’t know what it means to unlove you

Loving you is second nature.

I try to exile you from my heart, from my mind.
I try to erase all traces of you.

But even in the silence, where you're nowhere to be found, 800 miles away
it's film reels of you that play on loop.

It doesn't matter how many doors I close -
I've memorized the path back to you.

I keep trying to walk away,
but I can’t -
because all I know is how to run to you.

Chasm

Exile
