i told you

how i

felt

now tell me

the

same

tell me

what you’re

thinking

don’t leave me

here

like this

please don’t

leave me

at all

i need your

words

and thoughts

to keep

living

on

except you

haven’t said

anything

your boyfriend

texted me

asked me

what was wrong

with

me

i don’t

know

ok?

i didn’t

mean anything

by it

but i care

about you

almost

as much

as i

care about

me

which

is why

i put the

phone

down and

called my

mom for

help

sobbing and

messing up

my mascara

this silence

i can’t

take

just answer

me but

instead

you text

my mother

and

everyone

else in my

life

and then

i call you

and oh

my gosh

how i’ve

missed your voice

how i’ve missed

each word

and breath

oh dear i

think i’m

in love

and yet

that doesn’t

bother me

anymore
