I am held as a hostage
I cannot make a move
Your silence, your inconsiderate behavior makes me immobile
I thought we had plans
My day was arranged around that idea
How long does it take to send a text that says I can't make it, 30 seconds or less?
I don't even need an excuse
Just a release so I can have the hours of my day back
It costs you nothing but until you decide to release me I am a hostage.
