Little reminders

-
He doesn't love you like you think he does 
He hasn't changed 
He didn't treat you right 
The good times don't excuse the bad times 
It's okay that you love him
Forgive yourself and him
Everything will heal with time 
You're beautiful 
You deserve the world
He's going to be sorry he lost you

They don't really care how I am. They're just starting conversation. It's an unwritten rule that you must lie. You grit your teeth, hold back the tears, and give your standardized response.  I'm okay. I'm fine. I'm alright. These are the responses that are expected if you can't give an honest "I'm doing swell how about yourself?"  Because you can't let them know that you're falling apart. You can't let them know that your heart hurts, that your lungs ache, or that sometimes you just wish that you could disappear. Vanish. Poof. I can't le...
