i saw you again,
that same handsome face,
tired and sleepy eyes,
as you gave me quick, little glances,
“you've cut your hair too short again,” you say and i smile,
for this was because of the fact that
i liked to try this new thing, i like that weird feeling of seeing yourself in front of the mirror with a different look and feel on your reflection,
and that the fact that short hairstyles got associated with heartaches.

in one of my heartaches of loving you,
i did this to myself not because i'm blaming you, but because i'm blaming myself.
