"And somehow
When someone leaves
Or something ends
Despite all the chaos
And the breaking
You swear you feel
If only for a split
Second

Relief.

Lasting just long enough
For one pulse of blood
To shudder
Through your frame.

And after years and years
Of stolen nights
And memories
That make me weak

I understand.

You feel relieved
Because your greatest fear
In the entire world
Has been realized
And going against everything
You have ever believed in,
You're still breathing.

You've survived."
