9:30 pm
You texted me you loved me,
That you’d never leave me,
And I answered back
With the same.
10:30 pm
I sent a you a cute picture,
Of two cats cuddling,
And I said it was us.
No answer.
11:30 pm
I sent you an inside joke,
Hoping you would look at your phone
And laugh and smile your amazing smile.
No answer.
12:30 am
I found myself in the shower,
Fighting an anxiety attack,
Maybe I’m stupid to worry, but there was
No answer.
1:30 am
I told you I was going to bed,
That I was going to try to sleep.
Even to my good night text, there was
No answer.
4:30 am
I’m still awake, I can’t sleep,
Wondering where you are, if something’s wrong.
I know I shouldn’t worry, but there was
No answer.
9:30 am
No good morning text from you,
So I send you one instead,
Hoping you will respond and there won’t be
No answer.
11:30 am
Still no answer, my frazzled mind thinking
You’re in the hospital somewhere,
And that I heard your last words a long time ago, because
There was no text.
