The Last Three Days

Folder: 
Dedications

You left me with a text:

"We need to talk"

in the middle of a Monday.

 

That was enough for me.

 

It was over as far

as I was concerned.

 

I sat hours by the phone

and it never rang. 

 

My blood boiled

at the fact that you would

disappear like that. 

 

The next day I caved

and texted you my feelings

on your disappearing act.

 

And you responded.

 

You actually resurfaced

but it wasn't enough.

 

I needed to hear it 

from your lips.

 

And on day three,

we finally spoke.

 

You didn't seem concerned

for my feelings at all.

 

It was then that I 

realized what a favor

you did for me. 

 

I could have wasted

more time invested in you.

 

Thank you for ending it

when I was afraid to.
