today i called you crying
you kept asking if i was alright
and i kept saying sorry

the whole time i told myself
i was wasting your time
the whole time you told me
you were so glad i called

today i called you crying
and you wouldn’t hang up until i stopped

i cried until i couldn’t
and you talked until i laughed

today i almost

told you

i love you

*but i would’ve cried some more.
