Reality Check

I'm over him,
Really, I am.

When I dream of him,
It's just subconscious whim,
Stress of the day, late-night fantasies.

I'm over him,
Really, I am.

I don't need the fleeting touch
Of his hand on mine
Or the rare warmth of his smile.

I'm over him,
Really, I am.

I can hear his soul-deep voice
Without longing, look
Into sea-blue eyes without drowning.

I'm over him,
Really, I am.

I can share his heartaches,
Return his laughter,
As he never returned my love.

I'm over him,
Really, I am.

I can get through the day
Without wanting, without needing,
Without having.

I'm over him.
Really.
I am.


The Real Ghostbusters: Janine's POV

Author's Note: I don't know where this came from. The idea just popped into my brain and refused to leave me alone until I wrote it down. I actually LIKE the Egon/Janine pairing (though I think she'd be great with Ray, too). Just think of it as Janine having a bad, downer of a day. ;)
