Broadway

By pessum ire animus

And the hardest part
About this tradgedy we start
As I ponder so softly
The words on the phone, too ghostly
With just a simple good bye
Emotion fill as clouds do skies
Things we want to say,  but cant
Feelings plow forward, defiant
Staring blankly at the screen
Needing something for me to mean

And the hardest part
About this tradgedy we start
In just a few moments pass
He'll walk in through the panes of glass

And youll put on a smile
Delete the messages we just shared
Welcome him home, maybe even a kiss
Knowing the whole time youre thinking of me

The hardest part
          is that

Its not me.

    "It's not me" I think was your intended last line (typo?). This was a well developed concept concerning internet relations we are all exposed to on a daily basis. Well done and thanks.

    Thank you for the typo error. This wasnt quite about internet relations, although still technology based. More of a texting relationship with an amazing friend of mine... the concept remains the same
