We broke up exactly a year ago today, but by the way, I still miss you

-

I miss your pouted lips and your crooked teeth

I miss you in those shorts that were ripped at the seems

You tugged at my threads and I came undone

I swear - I didn't think I'd ever fall this hard 

Your body was an addiction - a daily dose wasn't enough

No rehab could keep me from giving into every withdrawal

The medicine between your legs is still my favorite drug

But your new profile says that you've moved on

Your short hair looks great, but I liked it better when it was long

I liked how it brushed against my face with every kiss

The way I wrapped it tightly around my fist

But your eyes seem brighter

And your smile seems wider

I'm happy that you're happy, but by the way

I still miss you.
