last night i broke up with my boyfriend.
if you happen to see me in the next few days,
be sure to give me a hug.
i could use it.

i had thought that since i was the one
ending the relationship
perhaps i would feel relief.

but matt has proven himself
as the most amazing person i have ever known.
i worry that i made the wrong choice,
even though it's the best i could do
given the circumstances.
