Second guessed texts
Dancing dot anticipation
Pausing then proceeds
Indecisive ellipsis...
An indication of deleted words
There is no going back
Once this draft is sent
Serious conversations make me anxious
How will I be received?
Do you even care?
Is it even worth the time?
Will this just make me look stupid?
Trying to find the perfect sentence
I need to clear the air
Uncomfortable silence
This must be addressed
I just can't go on
With this weight on my chest
I need to be heard
This needs to be said
I look away and hit send
A second seems like decades
As my concerns sit on read
Millions of possible responses
Play out in my head
Torturous unspoken words
Id rather have the sting of closure
Tell me you're done
That I ruined everything
You want nothing to do with me
I could live with that
I would accept that
Over no response at all
But the point is well received
You made things quietly clear
I'm not worth your energy
So I'll just disappear
