3 lockdowns later
Lockdown 1. We spent it entwined together. You moved in to mine, we were happy. It all broke down when we entered normality.
Lockdown 2. We spent everyday together physically but as friends. We slept together. We were essentially still together but told ourselves we weren't.
Lockdown 3. We became actual friends, you helped me get through the dark times.
Now. I've realised you didn't give me what I needed, you didn't fulfil any of my needs.
I tried so hard to make it work and now I realise I feel lighter without you. I'm finally over you and it feels wonderful.
I'm free of you and the heaviness you brought into my life.
I feel light not worrying about you.
I was too attached to you.
