Poem of the Day: No Reply

At 7:29 I sent you a text, I sat back and waited for your reply. To my surprise a whole week went by with no word. You left me hanging like clothes on a line left out to dry. Technological communication is at an all time high. Within an instant you can connect, just simply by typing “hi”. Yet, I still have not heard from you. Ghosted is the term for this type of behavior but I say it’s just rude not to return the favor. When someone speaks you speak back. What happened to that? A generation lost, their manners replaced by assholes. Sometimes I just wish we could bring the old ways back. I guess I thought wrong. What we had didn’t mean shit to you or maybe it wasn’t really true. You came up with an excuse to use as a ruse, trying to play me like a fool. But your fear is what you see and that’s the truth. You let it ruin a good thing, it conquered you.
