If you love me
not just the memory of me
then stop adding songs
to a playlist
you never play out loud.
Stop hiding behind lyrics
when I’ve been begging for answers.
Stop sending 30 hours of maybe
when I asked one question
and got silence.
I don’t need a soundtrack.
I need truth.
If I’m still in your heart,
say it without music.
If I’m not,
don’t let the melody lie for you.
Because I’ve danced in silence long enough
and your playlist
can’t love me back.

- Comment from author about the poem: I didn’t write this out of anger. I wrote it because I’m tired of decoding songs when a sentence would do. If you feel something — say it. And if you don’t — let me go for real. That’s all I’m asking. Just truth. Not tunes.

A powerful message in this poem that actions speak louder than words and that one must see to believe. Well written
I love this it is so true, we arent all mind readers, we just need people to say what they mean and the truth, nicely expressed and written
BRAVO
