If i knew you were leaving, would i have changed?

if i knew that spring would be the last time i saw you, would my heart have changed?

would i have spent every day looking at you a little longer?

straightening my spine and correcting my behavior every chance i got?

if i knew my last time seeing you was going to be in the back of a car, your hand in mine, tears in my eyes, a hug in the TSA terminal and whispered promises, would i have tried harder?

Would I have held on a little longer in that hug, in that promise that we'd graduate and make it, if i knew?

would you have loved me more if you knew that was coming?

or were you already gone?

the “were you already gone?” part really got me. did they start pulling away slowly before that goodbye or did it feel sudden after all those promises?

i don’t know. and i think that’s what been haunting me. was this something that was building or did I personally shove him off that cliff in April’s fight.

i used to replay my “last normal day” with my ex over and over too, like if i had just loved harder or noticed sooner maybe things wouldn’t have fallen apart. those goodbye moments stay in your body for a long time
