temporarily

 
i think about him at night
when the window is open and the rain is going
and i am falling asleep alone

and in the mornings, which are even
colder

i drove past his house last night
and didn't look, i swear

and if he hadn't looked so damn sad
the last time i said goodbye to him

if he hadn't looked so sad
i would've given up already

i would have closed the window

i would have tried
to make it
hurt less
