i went through the entire month of april without talking to you,
it felt shorter than i thought it'd be.
i thought i'd be begging and bargaining
for just another word, another glance
but i went through the entire month of april.
i thought i'd cry because you said that you'd check in
and you haven't
but i didn't, i went through the entire month of april.
i thought i'd be mourning the lack of your presence in my mind, i thought i'd be hiding from the memories of you,
but in reality, it's myself that i've been hiding from,
and i've been doing it for the entire month of april.
i thought i'd be yearning for your body, your warmth, your lips,
but i shudder at the thought,
my throat closes and my heart races in panic because i realized that i
never
want you to touch me again,
and i went through the entire month of april,
hating you, hating myself,
regretting and
cursing
and i'll go through every other month the same way.
