Acronyms

if o.k. was genuine
why did you wet up her shoulders until late at night while my restless arms slept on the marble tile,waiting for you to ring the doorbell

if ttyl had a meaning
why didn't my phone ring at the silent hour and only my accelerating breathe waved hello 

if xo was a gesture
why couldn't  I feel your silky hands protecting my system and your raspberry lips comforting my aching cheeks

if idk was clueless
how come did you know the lullabies that sooth her raging nights while you couldn't even answer the rhythms that highlights my beaming smile

if only acronyms were thoughtfully sincere,
you wouldn't say any of the above.
