Ghosted

All I have Are these items you gave me But how can I live When the ground is a mile beneath my feet All I need Is a sign that you are okay But I'll look around And all around me is a grey empty sky I won't plead my case to you You don't know what I'm fighting through Though I may shatter Life has glued me back together But this time added strings to hold me All I feel Are your words that will haunt me So why even try When you won't either Unlike you I have several lights that will guide me Yes, this is a hard time But you could at least say Hi I'm done making excuses up for you I'm always fighting through Though I may crumble Life has stuck me back together But this time stuffed me with paper so I can hold my own

I wrote this when a good friend of mine just ghosted me, he makes up excuses and I'm done, this is therapy for me.
