May 2015
I checked my phone every moment I could
and I tried not to get excited when I got a message
I hoped that it was you every time
but I don't know what I expected

Did you even remember what yesterday was?
Have you any idea how badly I want to talk to you?
I want to know how you are, and what's been going on
I want to hug you and breathe in your familiar smell

All I wanted was a message from you
It didn't even have to be long
'happy birthday', would have been enough
but I guess even that was too much to ask for
Jay.
