Surviving

I am not sure if the pain just stopped

Or I forgot

But I know I am surviving

Surviving today

Surviving depression

Surviving the people who expect me to just be my story

Surviving my own choices

I am not sure if I forgave

Not sure what the word means

But I know

The pain has stopped defining me

His face has stopped haunting me

His voice is no longer in my head

I guess I survived him after all

I survived him and found me
