Phone Calls

By oneofakind

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You say those words, 'I love you' To make yourself feel better and not so guilty for leaving. Those three words are so empty. But somehow echo through my head. There is a pause of when I return the phrase. It's hard for me to say those words maybe because of my past. It wasn't a common phrase and hardly felted. You say those words to make yourself feel better But now I'm older dad, I can read you like a book. I return those three words out of guilt to make myself feel better about wanting you out of my life. Written October 3rd, 2001 © on Oct 03 2001 06:55 AM PST   18 • 0 • 1
