The Rebound

March 9th, 2026 

I met you four years ago
You’ve always been nonchalant
Now your lips taste wrong
Because you’re not who I want
Your sheets are different
But the comforter is the same
Thinking about the last two years
Another girl laid where I’ve laid
You don’t want me either
I told myself I was done with this
But we find our way back again
As we ease each other’s loneliness
I know you aren’t the one
But my aloneness has won
And as you walked me up your stairs 
I wondered “what have I done?”

It’s been a while
Since I went somewhere to write
I’m going through the motions
Fawn, freeze, fight, and flight
When I think that I’ll be okay
I start to lose my sh*t
I saw a future with someone who left
That’s not something I can forget
When things become too real
People run away
Stuck in this pattern
No one ever stays
But I will keep trying
I refuse to concede
I know that I’m worth it
One day someone won’t leave

The flowers still aren’t dead
And it’s f*cking with my head
The timing doesn’t make sense
“I love you” left me in suspense
There’s tightness in my chest
But I would expect nothing less
It shows that I still care
Even if you won’t be there
The lips that pulled away
The memories all replay
It had only been 11 days
Since you gifted me the bouquet

Note: Here comes more writing about short lived relationships. This seems fitting to post today, since today would have been our one year anniversary.
