Same Number

I may not call

I may not text

But I keep the same number

To see what’s next

 

Several months pass

Where are you at

I keep the same number

In case you want to chat

 

If you don’t hear from me

Don’t think you’re forgotten

I just don’t have much to say

 

I don’t talk about myself

Or give my opinions

So if you hear me speak

Please stop and listen

 

When you’re talking to me

I’m not half-asleep

I’m worried about my lack of thoughts

They’re forming while I listen

 

Don’t give up on our conversation

I know it’s like pulling teeth

Getting words out of me

Is difficult, I see

 

I have stuff to say

But still, not a lot

I keep the same number

Hoping you’ll force me to talk
