She Asked Me to Call Her

I sense what may
be calculated delay
in responding to my texts
from my current infatuation
And it makes me smile in secret anticipation
that they don’t wanna go too fast either

That’s a far better narrative than being forgotten
overlooked
or unimportant

The difference between attraction and dismissal
Lies in the interpretation of silent pauses
