It's absurd how I could both want you and still hate you so much
I've wondered about this moment maybe once or twice in a year
I flip through your Insta
Breathing in your beauty
As I watch my mind teleport right to this moment
To you, sitting across a table from me
Making meaningless conversations we both couldn't be bothered by
Will our bodies remember each other?
Will our hearts remember the fondness?
But knowing you, you'll probably try to laugh it off
Like these memories did not scar enough
And knowing me, I'll probably try to coordinate your tune
Because that's how it's always been
Hating you slightly beneath the laughter
Wanting to scream out the questions I could never ask out
Hoping you'll take them seriously
And ask me if we could talk more privately
My heart skipping millions of beats
As I accompany you to the adjoining room
Will our eyes remember each other?
Will our ears ring familiar those promises?
I ask you the questions
And you explain
And somehow we've been at this for more than a day
The tears, the laughter and the rage
Till your lips meet mine
And we both realize
Our bodies are nothing but strangers
That our hearts didn't grow fonder
As we untangle ourselves from these emotions
Sitting in the reminiscence of yesterday...
