no one ever expresses the worst part of your days of constantly looking at you phone just to receive nothing from that person you miss.

you still catch yourself checking because you’re hoping they’ll text, or because a part of you is still waiting for them to come back

yes! and it’s sad cause deep down you know they’re not. cause they are distracted by someone new.

checking my phone every few minutes even when i already knew there wouldn’t be anything from them. that silence gets so loud when you’re missing someone that badly.

@SparkyDash605 technology is great but at a time like this can also be a killer

And worse you know you shouldn’t be looking but you can’t help but to have the thought of “just maybe “

yeah, and then the heartbreak starts all over again cause to know someone can continue on their days without you to me that just seems pretty wild you know
