You told me you were hurt.
I asked how badly, and if you were okay.
You didn't respond.
I waited. And waited.
It seemed like an eternity I waited,
Hoping you were fine,
Praying you were fine.
I was so worried.
My hands were shaking
As I asked again if you were all right.
I was scared.
When you don't know what's happening,
Your mind makes up the worst possibilities,
Even if they're unrealistic.
Then you responded.
You were fine.
You hadn't had your phone with you,
Hadn't seen my messages.
You apologized,
But you were okay.
You were okay.
I was so relieved.
Maybe you'll laugh at me
If you ever read this.
You'll think I was overreacting.
That's okay.
I don't care.
As long as you know that
When I didn't know if you were okay,
It was like an earthquake had ripped through my life.
Maybe that's weird.
Maybe I shouldn't care so much.
But I do.
I don't care if the feeling's mutual or not.
In fact, I almost hope it isn't.
Because I never want you to feel
The kind of earthquake I felt.
