just hit send
My phone dings, vibrates, and lights up when you text me--
so do I.
But you went back to him,
and I’m clearing my history because I can’t compete with yours.
.
If life were a poem I would fight for you,
but that is kid stuff,
that would be a mistake.
I feel like the underdog,
and the universe is pullin’ for me, right?
But you left this poem in your wake.
.
Everything is being erased from my future,
right through the fog,
so send me a blank text once in a while,
I will make up all the words.
.
My phone dings, vibrates, and lights up when you text me,
but it has been quiet lately,
where are your texts?
Please,
just hit send.
