Hey Just how long are you going to sit there Night after night silent Not a freakin' thing worth telling me? What, you lazy? Can't bother to think of Some inane bit of trivia from your day to amuse me? Hasn't it sunk in by now? After years of me Asking (Oh no, not asking, make that begging. Make it pathetic.) "So tell me about your day." "Anything new with your coworkers?" "What did you write about today?" "Where'd ya have lunch?" (No, make that groveling, desperately wishing for something ANYTHING GOD DAMMIT to fill up this terrible void) Night after night, didn't it occur to you I wanted you to talk? That I'd have taken just about any Stupid little thing you might have contributed To a conversation between us? You didn't even bother to fake it. You might as well have screamed at me "You're worthless. You aren't worth talking to. I'll just let you babble, fill the emptiness Silently condemn you with my withdrawal." But I'm not the worthless one here. Hey You know all those years you shut me out? They're over. Now your silence echoes Around a kitchen you sit in alone.
