𝐧𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐠𝐢𝐚 𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬

teach me your ways

you look happy,
opposite of what my heart tells me.

did you have a memory loss?
did you forget?
or maybe you're just ignoring
me, purposely.

saliva swallowed,
eyes shut,
palms clammed together,
perspiration kisses my back.

promises broken,
leaves fall,
I wonder how are you.

I'm just paying for my mistake.
