Radio Silence

Does it bother you when I don't text or call?

I'm proud not to have contacted you, even though there's so much I want to say. I tell myself you wouldn't hear it, anyway. I want to say that I'm sorry that I noticed too late, that I really want to see you, that I want you to stay away, that the memory of your smile hits me beneath the ribs at random points throughout my day.

But I don't text you; I don't call. My pride isn't worth it, especially when you've nothing to say at all.
