when I ask you why
you kiss me,
you shrug
'because you're a girl.'
when I ask you why
you call me,
you say
'the radio was boring.'
when I ask you why
you invite me,
you say
'I didn't want to show up alone.'
when I tell you that
I like you,
you say
nothing
radio silence.
when I ask you why
you used me,
you say
'I didn't.'
when I ask you why
you bothered at all,
you give
excuses
when you ask me why
I don't answer anymore
you should know
by now
you will find me
as distant
as radio static
you will find me free
from a friendship
that was nothing
but endless questions
and unspoken
answers
