If they

 From Peaceofdeace

If they wanted to talk to you, they would.

If they cared, you wouldn't be confused.

Read that again -- slowly.

People make time for what matters.

They don't forget the ones they love.

They don't go days without checking in

if their heart is truly involved.

So stop writing paragraphs

for someone who gives you one-word replies.

Stop overthinking your every move

just to keep their interest.

Stop calling inconsistency "busy" 

and silence "space".

You deserve communication without chasing.

Reassurance without begging.

Love without wondering.

And I know --

you want to believe they're just going through

something.

But you're the one carrying the weight

while they keep you waiting.

The truth?

If it's mutual, 

you won't have to keep proving it.
