another day
she took the
longer route
to avoid him.

another day
she forced her heart
to not skip a beat
when she sees him.

another day
apology isn't always an option
'cause sometimes there isn't
a right moment at all.

another day
no small talk
'cause the silence
it speak louder.

another day
the same story over again
stuck like a broken song
in repeat.

another day
a new one
yet the pain
it still lingers on.

the ache remains
like a scar on my heart
or sometimes wishes
to be on her wrist as a scar.
