No One Calls

“Hey… I'm just checking in... I- uh.. never mind, I'm sorry.”

---

Tired eyes on a blue-lit screen

Midnight ticks but I don’t dream

Scrollin’ through names I helped heal

But not one checks how I feel

Sent a text last week, no reply

Left on read, guess that’s just life

I pick up every call they make

But my phone? Silent… 'til it’s too late

---

I give and give till I fade

But who’s there when I break?

---

No one calls when I’m the one cryin’

No one stays when I say I’m tryin’

I’m there for them, rain or fall

But when I fall… no one calls

No one sees the cracks I hide

Guess they think I’m always fine

But even steel hearts start to stall

And still… no one calls

---

They say “You’re so strong,” like it’s a gift

But it’s a curse when you’re sinking quick

They vent to me, cry on my chest

Then ghost me when I need rest

Even my mirror don’t look back

Just a stranger wearin’ all black

It’s loud in my head, but quiet outside

A thousand thoughts—no replies

---

I left my door unlocked

Phone on loud

Heart wide open

But no one came around…

---

No one calls when I’m the one cryin’

No one stays when I say I’m tryin’

I’m there for them, rain or fall

But when I fall… no one calls

No one sees the cracks I hide

Guess they think I’m always fine

But even steel hearts start to stall

And still… no one calls

---

“Hey… I saw you called for once.. look.. I just wanted to hear someone's voice right now… please call me back.”
