emergency contact.

i have healed without you, and from you.

You are still my emergency contact.
You are still the person they call
when I am distressed,
when I am sick,
when I am too tired to even take care of myself.
You are still my emergency contact,.
Despite the fact we have no contact,
Despite the fact I can hardly remember
your number,
your voice,
your freckles,
or the way you held me in your arms.
It’s quite ironic really.
You are still my emergency contact,
and there has not been one since you left.
Was I really damaged, broken, unfixable, or were you everything that was wrong with me? .
