"hey can i ask you something?" they ask
"sure what's up?" you reply
it's just another favor.
a favor that will never be returned. no one else cares about you.
"you got a second?" they ask
"yeah" you answer
it's just another question
someone did not invite you with the rest of your friends? welcome to mind world. days, weekends, school breaks, and summer vacation all goes by WITHOUT a text. without that invite...
"can you talk?" they ask
"i got time" you type back
it's just another friendship question
another question about how they left you out. you see it every single day. almost every day...
"what are you up to?" they ask
"nothing much" you send as you are laying on the couch
it's just another standard text.
they NEVER mean anything. they just want to see if you are hanging out with anyone and they are missing out on some drama.
--------------------
nothing.
the empty text message cube on your home screen.
no invitation.
you see your "best friends" out and having a good time.
remember when you used to be there too?
maybe one day someone will regret leaving you home.
not inviting you to a party.
here you are now.
alone.
a forgotten memory.
just the person everyone runs to for help.
that is all you are.
nothing more than just a memory.
