Love Poem: One-Liner

One-Liner

I slept on it overnight so I wouldn't lash out
The words I'd have said would not have been kind
Conflicted between feelings of anger and sorrow 
I needed to pause and absorb your one-lined reply

Being your last priority has become tiresome 
So I bit my tongue, and kept my thoughts to myself 
And I've decided no longer to tolerate 
Your selfish ways are damaging to my health

Two can play this 'waiting game' of hide and seek
By letting your one-lined response stand alone
As for my absence, well, you'll figure out how it feels
But this time it's my move that will be the unknown
