I didn't know you were
already flirting with me
as you showed
a collection of personal videos
you've saved,
or when you sent
your favorite ramen
you just cooked,
or when you shared
the discography, and
even conspiracy theories
of Fall Out Boy,
or when you tried
to show how a braid
would look on you,
or when you tried
to install Twitter and Telegram
just so we could be mutuals
on every
social media platform.

I didn't know that in those times, you were trying to take me down memory lane to the places we have in common.

I didn't know that in those times, we enjoyed being together and both lost our train of thought.
