just because

just because my heart no longer breaks when i hear your name, it doesn't mean it doesn't bend a little. 
just because i don't cry any more, it doesn't mean that i don't still get sad. 
just because i no longer hope for a future with you, it doesn't mean that i don't think about what it could have been like.
just because i've moved on, it doesn't mean that you don't still cross my mind.
just because i blocked your number, it doesn't mean that i don't still check my phone to see if you've text. 
just because there's someone new and i deny that he looks anything like you, it doesn't mean that i don't see it myself when other people bring it up. 

just because i love you still, it doesn't mean that i'm still in love with you and it doesn't mean that i'm not okay.
just because i do care, it doesn't mean that i want what we had- or what i mistakenly thought we had. 
just because i wanted you to be "it" and for a moment thought that you might be, it doesn't mean that you were. "it" is still out there for me. "he" is out there. 
just because i'm writing this, it doesn't mean that i think you're going to care about what it says. 

just because my heart no longer breaks when i hear your name, it doesn't mean it doesn't bend a little.
