Feel

Ever touched your phone hoping for a text
From your lover but only to find blue ticks?
She's not responding to you,buy yet she's online
Probably not for you
Do you ever feel like you're
Pushing your relationship to the edge?
Like maybe she's no longer into you
But you keep on pushing her to tell you
Do you ever feel like telling her that
She means the world to you, because you never did and now you feel it's too late for that?
Do you know the feeling of burning tears
in your eyes, that are not coming out
but they just there?
Do you know the feeling of loneliness and depression?
Have you ever felt single while you're in a relationship?
Do you ever log into your WhatsApp and
Just stare to your phone hoping she'll respond
She will respond,she will respond,
she will respond but there's still those blue
Ticked texts she read and ignored ?
Do you ever read your old texts massages and make a wish?
Wish you could rewind the clock
So you can be happy again?
