Hello

It's amazing that when it comes time to say something, even the easiest words can't come out

Hello!

Just a word, a simple word

I just want to say “Hi”

Why is it that with you I can’t?

Why is talking to you so difficult?

Why do I miss you like I do?

Why?

Full Disclosure:

You’ve done nothing

Nothing to warrant the attention

Never flirted

Never came on to me

It’s all in my head

It’s all wishful thinking

Besides

You’re taken

But you’re not happy

I see it

In your face

In your fake smile

In the family pictures

You know the ones!

Yeah, the ones he’s not in

Do you even love him?

Does he love you?

Yet I sit here

Waiting

Knowing

I can make you smile

A real smile

But I’ll never know

We’ll never know

Hello!

Can you hear me? 

Of course not!

Because I can’t hear me

Because I can’t say it

I have no problem

Talking to people

But you

You

I just can’t

I don’t know why

I don’t understand

None of this makes sense

Not at all

So maybe you’ll read this

But you probably won’t

Would it matter?

Would you know?

Would you?

That this is me

Reaching out to you

Maybe I should just quit you

But how do you quit something

That you never started

Because I can’t say it

But I’ll say it here

…
