The phone line went dead

Every tear that ever existed burst forth

Upon her cheeks in a torrent of regret

She'd hung up on the one guy that ever

Made her feel worth it.

The one guy she ever truly loved.

Deep sobs echoed in the silent home,

Every fiber trembled within her to call back

Everything hurt. There was too much pain

She wanted him with everything she had

But couldn’t show it.

There was the fear of the relationship never working

And of being broken hearted again.

Pride did not stop her from calling back,

She just didn’t deserve the acceptance of an apology,

So she didn’t try.
