obsessed

I swear I don't think about you

the moment I rise from my sheets

and drag myself to the bathroom,

and fix my hair

for no one in particular.

 

I still find laundry boring,

and why would I be humming

love songs

as I fold

that one sky blue shirt

that most definitely

does not remind me of your

eyes?

 

Every task almost seems like

waves crashing down upon me nowadays.

But then I imagine your face,

oh god, your smile,

and I swear,

it makes me want to fly through

those waters to find you.

 

I can't promise that I'm not obsessed,

and I can't promise that I wouldn't

sob for days if you were to leave me.

 

But,

 

I can tell you that there is always,

always, a table reserved, just for us,

in my heart.
