i dislike poems, they welcome memories of you to waltz in my mind. i loathe poems, they make me reminisce every encounter with you. i abhor poems, they never fail to make me maudlin; pity myself. i curse them, i have unfollowed nearly every poetry accounts on instagram yet they still appear in my feed. right, then it hits me that i still am following some poetry accounts. why? because i enjoy self-pitying, victimising myself. and? i like to reminisce about the past. not to mention, the memories of you are irreplaceable.
