• you didn't want to respond back to me today
    when i left you one message
    just one reply you left me
    empty of apathy and of heart and of care and of love
    brimming with annoyance
    filled with regret
    with a ghostly kiss of longing, and yet
    I'm sitting here with my bacterial infection
    and depression
    and i miss you and miss you and miss you and i'm sorry that
    i couldn't stop talking about the time we spent
    together, alone, in my house and in my head
    i didn't want to let you go and i wanted to see
    if you could be the one to get back to me
    about love and loneliness
    i guess not
    i introduced you to a friend that will be your lover
    a lover that will be your best friend
    a best friend that will replace me
    from time and time again
    until you need me to
    let the loneliness
    seep into
    again.
