I miss you and oh god I miss you most at night

But I can't live off your excuses when the feeling of you is fresh in my mind

The way your lips were cracked as I felt them everywhere but on mine

And you still blame me for catching feelings because they no longer benefit you

What good will my emotions do for you if I'm not in your lonely bedroom

We never were serious but our bodies were in tune

Because damn did you know how to play me

And it's been two weeks since I last felt you on my skin

I can almost forget the scent of your cologne that clings to me in your absence

Only to remember that the ghost of your touch is haunting me

Desperation is the only reasoning for my craving that you willingly fed into

And yes I loved you

Platonically because I know not how to romantically

Everything revolving us is collecting dust as we use the past tense to describe a time of confusing complexity

But together things seemed so very simple

Nostalgic nights recounting the way your name tastes bitter in my mouth

I know why you never kissed my lips and I resent your cowardly ways

But I miss you anyways.

A/N: I don't know what this is but it's something I guess. I'm really bitter lmao.
