The less we talk, the more I realize I don’t need you at all.
I used to hold on so tightly, thinking you were someone I couldn’t lose, but now the silence feels lighter than your presence ever did.
Every day we drift, I see things clearer. I see how much peace I gain without the constant confusion, and how much strength I have when I’m not begging for the bare minimum.
I’m learning that missing someone and needing them are two different things. I may still think of you sometimes, but I no longer depend on you the way I once did.
