LIMERENCE. / KTH

twenty-first thought

i haven't talked to you since then,

but i've heard you've returned home,

and that you've been visiting your mom regularly,

and i feel so glad to hear that.

i don't live with jungkook in his apartment anymore,

so i'm back at home with my dad and my brother

who's growing taller and taller than me

each day.

two weeks after you got released from the hospital,

i headed over to your house,

and the door unlocks on the first try.

it is nighttime,

and parties thrown by modern high schoolers

can be heard from afar.

i enter.

i don't see you right away.

i make my way to your room,

and find you.

you're sitting on your bed,

looking at a picture

you glance at me,

bewildered of my presence.

i run over and hug you,

holding you tight,

and you return the same.

i've missed your touch.
