Left on Read

Damn
What did I say
That was wrong?

Sending text messages
To your phone
No reply
Just “message seen”

Not even a “leave me alone”
Nor a “let me be”

You could have said something, anything
Just acknowledge me

Let me know
That I was heard

If you want to be free
I’ll let you free
FLY
Like a bird

But don’t leave me
Wondering

Fuck..

Like I said
Let me know

Because I get inside my own head
Assuming the worse
Jumping to conclusions

Let me know

So that there’s no more confusion

Let me know

If I’m not the only one
In your phone

Not the only one you’re entertaining

Let me know

If my bed is not
the only bed you lay in


No I won’t call you
Because I know you won’t answer

But tell me something
I gotta get some answers

Or some clarity at least
Tell me what it’s gon be

If you don’t wanna talk that’s fine
But you better hit my line—

And

Let me know

If it’s something I said
Because I know damn well,

You didn’t just leave me on read…
