I never wanted to see his face
Never again wanted to hear his voice
But an anonymous phone call late at night
Left me without much of a choice

What was he thinking
Standing outside in the snow?
He waited for me to come out and join him
Surely he knew I’d say no

It was fun while it lasted
But too much time has passed
The silence has gone on too long
There’s no way now that it could last

Did he really think we’d stay out all night
Just like we used to do?
The that last four months would unhappen
Just because he wanted them to?

I didn’t understand it
And I don’t know what to do
After so long how can that voice of his
Still tear my conviction in two?

Things were over, they were done
Barely even a memory
So how the hell can he have the nerve
To still be in love with me?

Let me go, let me live
This question shouldn’t even be real
We barely even knew each other at all
So how else did he expect me to feel?

I am not a play thing
And I’m certainly not a toy
You can’t just drop me and then pick me up
Hell no. I’m a flesh and blood boy

I don’t love you, never loved you
Why can’t you believe that it’s true?
I stuttered and stammered my way through excuses
But in the end you know I can’t stand you

Leave me alone, let me go
Stop trying to mess with my head
I’ve denied their existence for so long now
So just let my false feelings stay dead

So say goodbye and say goodnight,
Don’t ever call me again
Ignore what I said, hear what I say now
And stay the fuck out of my head
I wrote this last night after a rather unfortunate phone call. After much self debating I decided to post it.

It's my first attempt at poetry in a LONG time. I probably shouldn't have tried cause I'm not very good at it. But this is what I was feeling, so there you have it.
