I wanted to be the strong one. The yanker of the band aid with the quick pull, not the one with the wound it was concealing. How I wish you would cave first reaching out to me if only to say hello. But I knew you wouldn't be . The conviction in your eyes wouldn't allow that. Im left obsessively checking my phone for the message I know is never going to come. Fighting myself to not think about you, distraught why you're not thinking about me?

Band-Aid
I wanted to be the strong one. The yanker of the band aid with the quick pull, not the one with the wound it was concealing. How I wish you would cave first reaching out to me if only to say hello. But I knew you wouldn't be . The conviction in your eyes wouldn't allow that. Im left obsessively checking my phone for the message I know is never going to come. Fighting myself to not think about you, distraught why you're not thinking about me?
