i will be okay

i will miss you but i will be okay 

you will join ghosts of other gone people

haunting my memories and my heart

and i will be okay

 

i will laugh and i will cry

for you and over you and not for you

i will look over my shoulder and laugh

and i will be okay

 

maybe we’ll speak again

catch up and you’ll be sorry

but maybe you’ll never try to right your wrongs

and i will be okay

 

one day i’ll bump into you

and the pit living my stomach will not awake

we’ll meet eyes across the bar

and i will be okay

 

with or without you

i will be okay
