Obligations, expectations, responsibilities
A million words to say busy
A million words that could be misunderstood
I've been the one to say:
I keep asking, you always say later!
You just keep ignoring me!
You aren't listening or making time for me!
Do i mean that little to you?
Can't you return my calls?
What do you mean you are busy?
So i do not even deserve a minute?!
Later, i do not have time now.
I got caught up with work or such
I dont have time for this anymore
I need to sleep, let's talk later
I forgot to call you back
Sometimes our seasons do not line up
With other people's seasons.
You are not wrong for wanting attention
Nor wrong for needing time to sort things out
Courage to be independent or find options when people are unavailable
The courage to explain our position in spite of the risk we might be misunderstood
