wake up at six 6am.
grab my phone.
check my feed.
you are always
there.
first post.
always wearing
your beautiful
smile.
maybe the algorithm
realized how
i stare at our photos,
some nights
before sleeping.
maybe he
makes the sum
of our unsaid words
and multiplies it
by those nights
i fell asleep in
your chest.
maybe he
never heard
our fights.
the shouting,
the crying.
or maybe he did
but just choose
to keep them
out of the equation.
maybe he
knows
you are still
the first person
i think of
when i wake.
i scratch my eyes
and keep scrolling.
