When I heard his voice
Crack on the phone
I knew
I knew by the burning in
My chest, the tingling in
My fingers numbing
How your whole world
Can change in one phone
Call how was I supposed to
Know I had to fight
The appeal was the ease maybe
I was naive to think you could
Be everything I wanted
And also never leave me
My therapist told me today
I have abandonment issues
So why do you think I begged
What else can I do when everyone
Else leaves me to not expect
You would too
You scared me, yeah
But more than that I had flashbacks
To days where the only thing I
Could say was screaming into
A yellow pillow
I skipped a class this morning to
Hide my swollen eyes
I don’t know if they are staring
But it sure feels like it
There is no better word than
P a n i c
I felt my entire rib ate detatch
From me, it float around my body
Scraping my skin from the inside
My bitten fingernails can’t
Scratch my skin but if they
Could I would be just muscle and
Blood vessel
You don’t know how much you
Need someone until they want
To walk away
Please I said
Please don’t leave me
Everyone leaves me
You promised
You wouldn’t be the one who hurt me
You promised
Please don’t give up
Don’t give up on me please
Why can’t you say you love me
I love you
I don’t want to lose you
Please
Please
Baby please I love you
Do you still love me?
Why aren’t you saying anything
