Practice

i practiced this

i practiced what i would do,

what i would say when i saw you after months of silence

but when i saw you i didn’t feel what i thought,

what i told myself i would feel.

i didn’t think about you anymore,

i had a few weeks of true

happiness.

but I’m back and so are you

and now its back the the games.

acting like we’re okay

acting like we don’t miss each other.

i see the way you look at me.

i miss you too, but I’ve had more practice
