"Dragonfly"

Today was a good day.
I thought of you thrice.
I looked at my replacement and genuinely thought
                   I'm better.
I got wind in my hair,
Sun on my face to match my
More frequent smile,
Relished in the sweetness that is my
More frequent laugh.
                   I'm lighter.
Today was a good day.
I planned an adventure,
To see new, exciting and distant
All with my oldest favourite and potentials.
I go minutes without thoughts of you.
                   I'm progressing.
Today I thought of else.
Moments of retreat are growing
And the inevitable healing approaches
                   Despite haunting pain.
Hope helps. I fell,
                   But I'm starting to stand up.
In reality baby steps are giant, challenging.
Today I moved forward,
I was intrigued deeply and truly.
Interest sparked.
And you, my dear, were not the cause.

I say I'm better and I'm lying,
                   To myself and the world.
But say I'm getting better, you're becoming less,
And I no longer fib.
