Live With It

Today would have been 9 years... if we had stayed married.
If we hadn't already been divorced for two years.

This is still my heart break, not yours.

I understand now that pain either goes away
or you learn to live with it.

And so...

I've shifted my focus to new possibilities rather than wishing for a different past.

Because you can't go back.

I have to know you to forgive you.
But you are a stranger to me.

Until we spend more than five minutes together. 13 years does that I guess.

I don't want you to be the one,
yet you have always been.

Why else would I have married you?

And so...

I live with it.
