untitled

i hear you breathing
on the other end of the phone
wondering why
i won't let you in

But

I feel too much
and i don't say enough
to lend context to
these uncomfortable silences.

"i've always been this way"
i hear myself whisper,
"cold hearted
and numb to the touch."

yet you burn me inside
and i haven't cried in years
but still you tear at my soul.

"then i guess this is goodbye"
you say slowly, empty
"have a" ...... "nice day."
I can almost feel you sigh.

And with that the phone goes dead
a low steady hum fills the space
going nowhere.
replace the phone as a single tear falls.
