I don’t know what I miss
But there’s a loss inside,
I know I shouldn’t miss you at all,
But still, I can’t help these feelings I have.
I shouldn’t care,
But you were a part of me,
Even in the bad moments
We were a unit, now incomplete.
The good times we shared
Now tainted with deceit,
But I still find my thoughts
Lingering on the things we shared,
The good, along with the bad.
I shouldn’t miss you
But I do,
I’m not sure how to deal with this separation,
I don’t know how to heal the wounds.
People tell me different things,
How to get over you their way,
I’m not sure how to cope,
With missing you when I know I shouldn’t.
I want the days to stop being measured in minutes,
For things to become easy again,
For my mind to stop capturing our moments together,
For the hurt to suddenly disappear.
I know I shouldn’t be thinking these thoughts,
Separating was the best idea,
The only way for us to survive,
Individually, not as a couple.
Please tell me what you think

I'm currently going through that right now, how everything reminds me of how things used to be.
It's tough, but after a while things fade, becoming just as fleeting as all the other memories.
You've put into words what I've been feeling for a while now.

That is very deep. I am very sorry for your loss. It does sound though as it was for the best. Time will be able to tell. I think that your phrasing has good feeling and emotion, as it should for the subject of this poem. As a friend though I am saying, it is an amazing poem and keep up the great work.
