seven paragraphs of real


Two months ago i called you at 3 AM
i expected you to ignore the ringing and send me straight to voicemail
those were always two things you were really good at
But you answered and i felt my heart lunge
and you probably thought i called because i missed you
but truthfully it was because i didn't , and i was scared of my calmness

I asked you how you were and i heard you sit there quietly and confused 
it was like you had forgotten i existed and that i wa once a part of your life
you told me "fine" and that was enough, i smiled to myself
That was the last conversation we had and after that i made sure to let go of you, 
and every negative comment you fired at me in a peaceful way

Fast forward two months and im still stuck wondering how you are
I still wonder how dog is and if you've seen any good movies recently
if you ever heard me say this to you and not written on this blog, you'd 
probably grin that sweet grin, and it would remind me of how much i needed you
once upon a time , You'd probably think i think these things because i still love you, but that 
is not the case 

You see, six months ago, way back in June
i would've done anything to please you, in fact i was jumping through hoops
to do so
to make sure you were happy before myself 
to make sure that it was me and only me causing your happiness
But it is not six months ago,
it is now, and i simple remember you as the man i gave my heart to

A person i told secrets to at 4 AM and fucked to feel a sense of closeness
A person i once loved, yes
But it is not six months ago, it is now and now i miss you but do not want you
i miss the way you seemed to care even if you didn't 
i miss the friendship and the secrets and stories
the sharing of our music, knowing that was our way into each other

Maybe one day things will be different
and maybe you'll call me on Tuesday afternoon and ask how my day was 
These are the things i think about before my eyes slowly close and i am finally 
rewarded with sleep after the days pain
but for right now?
Go fuck yourself :)
