As I type to you, I keep erasing words
Trying to find the right things to say but over and over again I keep having to re-type
I see the slash blinking
1
2
3
Waiting for me to continue with a pause slightly in between like a breath
Continue what?
My lazy words of how much you mean to me?
No
My fingers typing so fast of how confused I am about what I'm doing?
No
The slash continues to blink
1
2
3
The pause in between
The gasp of air of me trying to find what to type
The endless clicking of the delete button
Pressing enter and watching the slash move down and start to blink
This is me
Finding the right words to type
