Phantom Limbs

I've come to realize
Getting over people
Is a lot like cutting off
One of your own limbs

Despite needing it
For everyday things,
You are forced to cut it off
For logic unreasonable

You will gain phantom limbs
As you will create
Phantom replacements
Subconsciously of those you loved

It's like your limbs will never be there
When you need them
But you'll always have the sensation
That they're still there

You will still need them to operate
But you will not have them
You will not be whole, ever again
But there is nothing you can do about it

Getting over a person
Is exactly like losing a limb
So please don't try to get over so many people
Lest you end up in a box, Helena

You will gain phantom limbs
As you will create
Phantom replacements
Subconsciously of those you loved

It's like your limbs will never be there
When you need them
But you'll always have the sensation
That they're still there
