- I Love You
- I Love you, I said.
You told me to just turn it off.
Why didn’t you just turn it off when you told me you loved me?
Why didn’t you just turn it off when you told me you had a habit of ghosting people, yet you call me back, one week, two weeks, three weeks after the fact?
Why didn't you just turn it off when you stayed on the phone with me all through the night?
Why didn't you just turn it off when you told me you could see me as your wife?
Why didn't you just turn it off before every kiss, every goodbye, good morning, I miss you's?
If it were so simple to just turn in off.
Why didn't you turn it off?
Didn't you turn it off?
You turn it off.
Turn it off.
It off.
Off...
Just turn it off.
