The Time You Told Me You Missed Me Terribly

And I believed it,

Like a fool.

I packed some lavenders

And rushed to you,

Like a fool.

I took the first train

And got some donuts

From on the way,

Like a fool.

I hoped my stars

To not disappoint

Me again,

Like a fool.

The time you told me

That you missed my

Touch, terribly,

I ran up to your

Apartment, rushed

Through the stairs,

Like a fool.

I stood there, waiting,

For you to

Open the door,

Like a fool.

The time you told me

You missed my laugh,

Terribly,

I looked again on the

Phone, still standing,

Outside your door, "never mind"

Read the text.

I still waited for you to

Open that door

With the lavenders,

Still blooming,

Like a fool.
