The Infinity Loop of Thought

Going over the tapes in my head.
Sorry the number...
Focus on the task at hand
You’re trying to reach... 
You’ve got this
...Is not available...
Ugh! But he didn’t answer! 
... Please try again... 
He told you that he loved you. That’s supposed to mean something—Right? 
...Leave your message after the tone... 
Crap! Think fast! Say something clever! Tell him how you’re feeling. No, that’ll never work... Being honest only gets you a broken heart. Ugh! But he didn’t answer. 
...Please try again...
He told you he loved you. That’s supposed to mean something, isn't it?

You have put to words the thoughts that persist in all our heads, the uncertainty, the insanity, the unmistakable thought that we are not worthy. Well done Laura.
