Loud and Clear

He stares at the screen, her name comes up again
She stares at the screen regretting ever sending that message
He can’t think of what to say to her
She doesn’t know why she puts herself through this every night
He wonders if he should tell her he wants her again
She wonders if he even remembers what it was like to love her, if he ever did in fact love her
He is a coward
She is brave
He says nothing
She cries herself to sleep
He stares at the screen every night hoping for her name to come up again
She deleted his number
