It happened to me

Being left behind appeared
to be a dark alley -- a place of fear,
uncertainty.
My face completely eroded from my skull.
I couldn't show up.

Memories of you and I together
in floods of dreams and love
started to hold me back.
I couldn't resist them.
I never knew you were that strong.

But I knew I was stronger than them.
All you left was mere strands of fantasy and delusion.
I could burn them all.

Learning to forget you is like putting ants,
one by one,
to a box full of holes.

Loving you is real.
It grew inside me.
It just happened.
