Question

Unanswered Texts


I never knew waiting could ever feel this long.
I used to be the friend who never responded to texts and calls,
Yet now, here I am, pathetically waiting for a notification on mine,
Checking my phone again and again, from time to time.

I really don’t want to judge too fast-
Maybe he's busy, and work is too much,
But I swear, it hurts so bad.
I just feel so pathetic and way too sad.

He just replied while I'm writing this,
And now I'm wondering whether I should respond or not.
Shall I let him explain himself,
Or just ignore him for quite sometime.

He does have a valid reason,
But I still feel like a pathetic mess.
I shouldn't have left so many texts
During his absence.

I never knew I could act so petty,
So out of control and so messy,
I'm scared of this version of me-
Oh Lord, What am I supposed to do with it?

He keeps sending explanation texts,
Apologizing again and again, But I'm a mess-
Still crying,
Still feeling far too vexed.

I swear I'm more mad at myself than him.
I never knew I could feel these things.
I've read his texts a thousand times now,
Yet my fingers refuse to type- I'm holding them firm.

I just want to keep my self-respect intact,
But I don’t know why I'm acting like that
It's so confusing, so bizarre-
Should I just stop and reply? Should I talk?
