Humming along
Smiling as faces flash
Passing quickly in my mind
Some blurred
Names long gone
Only a short time ago
"𝑖 𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑠 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑖𝑓 𝑖'𝑚 ℎ𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑡"
The memories fresh
Still wishing there were more
How'd we get to be so tense
so awkward with each other
Blocked, left on read, forgotten, quiet
I deleted the numbers i thought i'd never use again
And now a number flashes
Oh so familiar looking, but not in my phone
"𝑖𝑡 𝑠𝑒𝑒𝑚𝑠 𝑙𝑜𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑛 𝑚𝑦 𝑜𝑤𝑛"
Those i gave my number, the number that's flashed
Way more than once
I don't know who it is, wish i did tho
The numbers and texts i never blocked or deleted
Even though i know i should
Because my thumb hovers over 'call'
Even though i know i never could
All the things i wish we'd say but know we never will
"𝑡𝑎𝑘𝑒 𝑚𝑒 𝑏𝑎𝑐𝑘"
