    A Semester Without You

    I looked around today
    And realized,
    I survived 
    An entire semester without you.
    An entire semester. 
    I didn't think I could survive 
    A month without you,
    Let alone four
    The feelings that tortured me 
    Mere months ago
    Are far more fleeting now
    They are much less severe
    I don't grieve as I did
    I don't suffer as I was
    My chest rarely
    Aches so horribly
    That I feel as though 
    Someone is twisting a dagger within my heart 
    Four months ago,
    I didn't think I could survive
    A semester without you.
    Now? 
    I think I'll perhaps be able
    To survive 
    The rest of my life
    Without you 
    If I must
