You aren’t talking
\nAgain
\nAnd
\nI want to know
\nEverything
\nAbout how
\nYour day was
\nWho you saw
\nWhat you are doing
\nAnd
\nYou aren’t there
\nSo
\nThe tears run
\nDown my cheeks
\nOnto my neck
\nI don’t stop them
\nHead down
\nEyes closed
\nAnd
\nI want to hear your voice
\nBut
\nYou aren’t there
\nMaybe
\nYou never were
\nOr
\nMaybe you are
\nAlways
\nAnd
\nThis is all about me
\nMy imagination
\nTaking over
\nAgain
\nBut
\nIf you aren’t talking
\nThen
\nThere isn’t anyone
\nWho will
\nTell my imagination
\nTo fuck off
\nI never listen
\nWhen I say it
\nBut
\nThis time
\nI think it might really
\nBe you
\nWhich is a thing
\nI am not sure
\nHow to handle
\nExcept by waiting
\nHoping
\nThat I am wrong
\nAgain
\nAnd
\nYou could prove it
\nTo me so easily
\nIf you would
\nSay something
\nBefore
\nI get over you
\nJudging from the visuals
\nThat will not happen.
\nPictures are hard
\nTo deny
\nAnd some people are
\nUnable
\nTo tell the truth
\nOr say goodbye
\nMe?
\nI could say it
\nBut
\nYou are not there
\nTo hear me <\/p>\n
