Excuse me miss Just to let you know This was everything Truth be told I sometimes pick up the phone Just to make sure you haven’t messaged me Muted conversations Doesn’t stop the typing Sometimes I hate the response Because you just send me silence But I’m use to the neglect from you Excuse me miss Do you sometimes miss me? Do I miss you? I run from those revelations frantically But thoughts of you chase me Hoping I have the stamina for this marathon My sprints fall into a jog There’s no ending in sight I thirst But no amount of consumed water cures the dehydration Because the water wasn’t poured from you Why must the future be filled with such uncertainty
