I got your message earlier, and my hopes rose up,
It feels nice to be thought of when times are tough.
I know you don't owe me your time or energy,
But I felt a bit put out when you left so suddenly.
You're not my therapist, I try not to speak too much,
I wasn't going to, but you left in such a rush.
I shouldn't feel this way, your transience is fine;
I'm projecting the past onto this present time.
My insecurities grow with every janky interaction,
I own that, I feel like I'm just your latest fleeting attraction.
