When was
The last time
You asked,
"How are you?"
And your eyes
Stayed on mine
And your mind
Didn't wander and
Your lips
Didn't interrupt?

"I don't tell
You anything
Because you make
Me feel stupid
And you
Judge me."

When was
The last time
My eyes did
Not meet yours
My mind
Wandered
My lips
Interrupted yours
When was
The last time
I didn't ask,
"How are you?"

"You never
Let things go
Like seriously
You're so
Dramatic."

You're right
I guess
Everyone says
That I don't
That I am

This time
I guess
I will let go

Let you go.
