The Other Side of Hello - M
The phone is ringing again,
and again I cannot answer.
I know who you are and
why you are trying to reach me
but I just can't, you see?
I can't go back to that place
where I'd melt at the sound of
your voice in my ear,
promising so much,
promising to love me,
promising to never say
goodbye.
Because it was all a lie,
every word another thread of
silken web you built
to keep yourself safe and to
keep me frozen in space —
how can you call and expect me
to just pick up where we left off, to
jump back into your world of
jealousy and distrust?
Talk all you want hon,
but I can't hear you,
I won't listen.
I am Monster.
