oh, I tried in many ways.
I kept myself busy, changed my routines,
told my heart to be stronger than my memories,
but nothing ever really worked.
Somehow, you always find a way to appear,
in quiet moments, in passing songs,
in places that no longer belong to us.
You show up between breaths,
between thoughts I didn’t invite.
I tried distance, I tried silence,
I tried convincing myself that time would erase you.
Oh, I tried all the known ways…
yet you return, softly and endlessly..
— Chamod Senevirathne
