About a month ago



*About A Month Ago*

About a month ago,
I thought you were the only person I could sit and talk for hours with.
About a month ago,
I thought the bond I had with you had pure intentions and nothing underneath.

About a month ago,
I thought of you randomly and just burst into tears.
About a month ago,
I thought the pain in my heart would last for a few more years.

About a month ago,
I thought I would cry every night over the things you said.
About a month ago,
I thought the memories of you will always be stuck in my head.

About a month ago,
I never thought I'd hold a conversation about you and even manage not to cry.
About a month ago,
I never thought I'd even laugh about it instead of wanting to die.

About a month ago,
I never thought I'd be so happy.
About a month ago,
I never thought that even the tiniest glimpse of light will shine down on me.

About a month ago,
I never thought I would sleep so peacefully at night.
About a month ago,
I never thought I would try all the things I never thought I might.

About a month ago,
I never thought I'd slowly be accepting it for what it is.
About a month ago,
I never thought I'd familiarize myself with "no this isn't it".

About a month ago,
I never thought I'd be phasing away,it's scary yet thrilling.
About a month ago,
I never thought I'd have this new mindset but I'm loving this new revelation.
