I know I shouldn't talk to you
You deserve far less than that
I tried my hardest for weeks on end
Eventually caved
Your texts I looked at

Wasn't surprised to see how they started
Two variations of 'Amanda, I need'
Then went on to say we had to talk
'Please'
That's all there was to read

Effort unworthy of a reply
I let silence shout instead
Meaning displayed loud and clear
That I had no words to be said

I wanted you to apologize
Admit that you were wrong
At the very least ask me how I'm doing
But your personality is too headstrong  

So after that you say nothing
Guess you've got nothing to prove
It would appear we've got a draw
Both reluctant to make the next move
