Why won't you respond?
Why leave me now?
The silence is deafening,
Defining what makes us.
I hope you don't hate me,
I pray to God I do you right.
There is no way to measure,
No gauge to reason with.
I promise I won't be your
Pretty Girl,
Just don't leave me to the wolves.
Gnashing their horrible fangs,
Begging for the one that will be left behind.
Will I be that one?
Is there enough
Emptiness in your heart to leave me be?
Do you want to leave?
Do you think I will stop you?
My heart is breaking at this end of our
One-sided conversation.
Does it break your heart?
I want to give up.
I want to let go.
But I can't and it's because of you.
Save me before I need
Saving.
Prevent the irrepressible
Heartbreak.
Stay with me,
Even if we are only
Friends.
You made a promise.
I thought you would keep it--
Or at least I hoped you would.
You must have forgotten.
The memory must be dust.
It was too long ago,
But promises should be eternal.
I think I love you.

Are you listening?
Sorry, I didn't mean to take so much of your time.
Sorry for everything.
