Blind Insecurity

"BLIND INSECURITY" “what’s up?” I asked her. “I was asleep but I heard the phone.” “your phone volume is up? why do you keep it silent when you’re here with me but loud over there where you lay?” “are you starting already?” “call me later when you’re awake. I didn’t mean to wake you up.” “I’m up… and by the way, I could ask you the same thing.” “I’ll talk to you later.” “you don’t have to talk to me at all!” a few hours later… she said, “I called you. what happened?” “I was on the phone.” “with who ?!?!” “are you starting already?” “so you can ask me questions but I can’t ask you?” ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha “you see? responses can start problems. lesson learned.” she was quick: “there’s no lesson here, I didn’t do s??t.” by: Chicano Eddie 3.15.19
