You never knew tears fell behind the wall
Maybe you thought that because I was asking about you and remembering all the details of your life
Listening
Letting you find solace in me
You were so wrapped up in my ability to make you comfortable that you thought that I was okay
But I suffered slowly, sadly and let this loneliness consume me. Wishing someone cared enough to simply ask me simply
“How are you?”
And actually want to know
