8 am i get woken up from a text
saying your leaving town,
10 am you text me goodbye and
that your not sure when your coming
back,
130 pm telling me your ok and safe and would
text me later
600 pm you had dinner and your in your
motel room safe and sound and will text me
tomorrow morning,
600 am i've read the text over and over yet
I still can't comprehend it;
im never coming home.
it was short and blunt I tried calling but it
said your was disabled,
how can those 4 words be so short yesterday so full?
