can you read in between the lines
you should know
what I'm really saying is:

I miss you
I miss seeing your face
god what a mess

In my newsfeed
you still
continue to haunt me

statuses that beg
for my comments

pictures that make
my heart drop
and messages
that leave me breathless

oh how much easier my life
would be if I was just
able to click 'block'

Light and fluffy
melts on the tip of my tongue
I worked for hours
and now you are mine alone

I squeezed the lemons
and wiped the egg whites
measured out the sugar
checked my list twice

I cleaned up the kitchen
wiped flour off my nose
turned off the cooktop
and thought of eating you whole
