next time you see me

i won’t

i hope the next time you see me

i’m in mid-laugh

tears starting to fill my eyes

my stomach hurting from all the laughter

i hope you watch as he pulls me in for a kiss

and tells me that he loves me

that i’m so silly

and how it wasn’t even that funny

i hope the next time you see me

you’ll want to say hello

to apologize for everything

for blaming me for all of our issues

i hope the next time you see me

he notices you in the distance

watching and observing

how happy i am without you

and walks me in the other direction
