Disconnection Error

I've written a lot to him, but this is due to a recent encounter.

I texted you again

In hopes that you would be okay

That we would be okay

But you weren't okay

Because we aren't okay

I said I love you

With five exclamation points

And you said I love you too

Period

If I sent you five heart emojis

You would respond

With a period

I ignored our underlying problems

I ignored the anxiety 

When I pushed send

When I texted

Happy Father's Day

Author's Note

Should I try something different from what I've been doing?
