I'm calling out for you.
I only want you.
But you don't hear me.
I just want something from you.
Anything.
I can't sleep,
My mind being caught up,
On thoughts only about you.
But I try not to tell you too much,
I'm afraid you'll be scared away.
Because who wants a complainer?
Someone so sensitive?
A burden?
So I hide my feelings,
Brush them off with a laugh.
Because "fuck it" you tell me.
No need to worry.
And I act this way because I know.
And shouldn't expect any less.
The moment I decided to tell you how I was feeling,
Thinking:
Maybe just maybe you'd say something sweet.
Only to receive a message hours later.
Telling me you're high.
I don't know what I expected.
After all,
You have no feelings for me,
You have no reason to try and talk me down
You have no reason To care.
And maybe I'm crying as writing this,
But everyone cries right?
I know you do,
You once did in front of me,
And my heart broke,
I wanted to help.
But now I know, if I cried in front of you,
Most you'd do,
Is take another hit,
All for a better high.
