I know I haven't reached out
I know I haven't asked you how your day was
How your boyfriends treating you
How your homecoming dress looked
I know I haven't called you
I know that's why we don't talk anymore
I know that's why we've stopped talking altogether.
I don't know why you haven't texted me
Why you haven't sent a letter
Why you haven't screamed my name at the top of your lunges until I screeched back
You knew I was hurt
You knew I was lying alone
In my king-sized bed
Living my own personal hell
I used to think you were my best friend
But you stopped asking about me
Stopped telling people about me
Stopped leaving your laughter on my bed side table
I've been busy
You have been too
But I miss you
I miss you and the hills
I miss the makeup counters
I miss the songs you sing
I've been in my ivory tower
With locks on the windows
Rubber bands on my wings
Where I'm cared about
Not like what you do
You know I don't like that
You know I don't want to talk about my feelings
Don't want my thoughts analyzed
Don't wanna use safety scissors
Can we still be pen pals?
Call me?
Send a text
Scream my name
Then go back to your life
i need you.
