Time and time again
This pattern repeats
You reach out
With half-apologies
With hollow plans
With fake promises
As the date nears
I meet only silence
Like a ghost
Existing on my phone
The lack of follow-through
Disappoints
As you Houdini out
The moment I open
You vanish

Time and time again
This pattern repeats
You reach out
With half-apologies
With hollow plans
With fake promises
As the date nears
I meet only silence
Like a ghost
Existing on my phone
The lack of follow-through
Disappoints
As you Houdini out
The moment I open
You vanish
