Severance

Sometimes
when I think
I've gotten past it,
moved past you,
the phone rings
or a text comes in
and there you are again.

I can't breathe,
the wings beat
against my insides -
butterflies aching
to be free.

And I just want you,
just as much as before
and then in a blink
you're gone again
like it never happened

And I can't breathe,
can't feel my heart beat
or anything else.

All I can think of
is to say "Please",
not because I want you
but because
I need you

to let me go.
