I sat and wait by my phone

Every ping sets of a ring in my ear

For me to find out it wasn’t you,

The one I wait for so patiently.

That’s the day I found out I was nothing.

It hurts how my absence doesn’t

bother you all, all I can do is hope for

you to call.

That’s the day I remembered i was nothing.

This time, the ring in my ear was from

a deadly silence that I crave to escape.

My mere existence relied on your notification

and time had never passed so slowly.

This is the day I accept that I am nothing.
