they stop saying “i love you”

they say it but it feels empty

they choose their friends over you

they choose you but you feel empty

they stop calling you pet names

they use them out of habit

“i don’t feel the same again”

“i’m trying but it’s hard”

being together but feeling lonely

being apart but still attached

“i don’t want to hurt you”

“i loves you, sorry"

they forget your small habits

you notice they changed

“i still care about you, but our relationship ends here, okay?”

“no matter what, you are still my best love, thank you for being there. but we are no longer us”

fixing yourself for them

losing yourself with them

“please give me space, i need to fix myself rather than spending time with you”

they still responds to you but response is very rude

last time they call you “mine”

last time they give you "hug"

you both pretend it’s fine

you both know it’s over

thinking “what if”

saying “it had to happen”

they just give you affection and your status is just formality

they just give you comfort without giving you status

they say “i’ll be better”

you decide you deserve better

they say “you’re the only one”

you know you weren’t

giving them another chance

walking away once

rebuilding trust slowly

never feeling safe again

wanting the old them back

accepting they’re not the same

missing them

remembering why you left
