Doomed From the Start 3

Doomed From the Start 3

A Poem by Rosi S. Phillips
"

My last personal one

"
This ending
I know it to be true
And if you call
I don’t know what I’ll do

Will I answer? 
Probably
Will I cry?
Not likely
Ah, but you push, push, push
And I shove right back

God, I hate technology
The glow from the screen make my skin crawl
And oh, do I want to call you back
And say I didn’t hear what you said
That my own insecurities obscured my hearing
Because you push, push, push
And I shove right back

I hate this self-fulfilling prophecy bullshit
'Cause it’s right
And it sucks
I can’t go with the punches

Why won’t you call back?
You asked a question, I answered it
What’s wrong with that?

I’m in too deep
It’s up to my eyeballs, down my throat, inching to my heart
After all, “we are feeling creatures.”

Did you forget about my crazy?
It never left.
I warned you
I warned myself
But you push, push, push
And I shove right back

I didn’t want it to end
No, I really didn’t
I wanted to meet you
Smile and laugh and meet face-to-face
Text is so impersonal as is the phone
But you push, push, pushed
And I shoved right back

I'm really sorry for you having to go through something that has your feelings all awry and I really hope you get through this with hurting somebody ;). He really does sound like somebody who needs to be long forgotten and so I hope you can get him out of your head soon but this is some good A writing. You could build this into another story and change the names.
