Laugh This Off, Or Speak Your Thoughts
Location
Hi. How are you?
I hope you're well.
Trust me, I really do.
It’s about to be one year.
The laughter and smiles are gone.
Silence is all we both hear.
I don’t know what you feel.
It could be hate. It could be anger.
You could pretend that you don’t care.
Whether or not you do care
I want to let you know that I do.
I carry feelings that I can no longer bare.
I remember what your mom heard.
I just need you to let me know
Whether what we had was real or not.
I think about you every now and then
Bet you don’t do the same.
Each time I have to debate
Whether or not we should be friends.
One day I actually came to regret
Not taking that chance that would take us
One level above being just friends.
I was thinking clearly
Or perhaps I was not
But I remember very clearly
Having that curious thought.
I look back at out memories.
I think back to my thoughts
I open my notebooks filled with your writing.
And my brain feels like it’s gunna pop
I have a lot more to say
But for your response I will wait.
Crumple up this paper and burn it
Or keep it by your side to come up with a response. . .
