to be honest,
i thought i would miss you.
i thought i would miss your hair,
that smelled of home.
though sometimes home smells like mothballs,
sometimes home smells like moldy fights.
i thought i would miss your colorful eyes,
but i don't remember what color they are,
any more.
i thought i would miss how you said i love you.
but it was always me saying it, turns out.
i thought i would miss you,
but that's something i could never do.
