I respond to your poems

Your posts

And your comments


But I say things as if

We're strangers


As if 6 months before 

We didn't talk every day

As if we weren't best friends 

As if you didn't promise to stay


I respond to you

Like we've never met

Like I just read your stories for fun


I try to sound like

I don't care

But if I didn't care

I wouldn't be checking up on you


I wouldn't follow you

Read your poems

Or check your posts


I wouldn't think about you 

Or miss you

If I didn't care


I almost wish I didn't 

That I could be indifferent 

But if I didn't check up on you

I'd worry that maybe no one did
