( Commas are purposely not in this poem.)

Today you said you loved me

You smiled, you know the one where your eyes crinkle

The natural smile

You hugged me

You smelled like cinnamon

The smell that wandered on your shirts that you let me borrow

On your pillow

It smells nice

Two days later

You avoided my gaze

You faked a smile

And when I hugged you

You smelled like perfume

I didn't question it

Because I loved you

The next day

You didn't acknowledge me

You didn't smile

The only thing you said was goodbye

I could only watch your back

As you packed your cinnamon smelling shirts

And all of my borrowed sweatshirts

I never saw you after that day

But the only thing I think of when you come to my mind

Is what did I do wrong?
