Of course I wished for you. 

But now months after you vanished from my life, I had the moment.

It's like when you are a kid and your mom puts a band-aid on the tiniest of scratches.  She puts it on to make you believe it will help, it will make you feel better.  And any time it starts to hurt, you think of the band-aid that is there to cover up the pain.

This continues for sometime, until one day you notice the band-aid is gone.  You don't know when you lost it, but you realize you have been getting along fine without it for quite some time.

And this is surprising.

And then you wonder if you ever needed it at all.

And now that you don't, you wonder why you wanted it so bad in the first place.
