she said,
a few weeks back,
three weeks to be precise,
i caught my best friend looking away,
losing eye contact... and yawning.

she said,
i felt abandoned.
i thought to myself,
if i can't talk to my best friend and
have her listen to me, who do i talk to? 

she said,
i felt angry, and hurt, and sad.

she said,
i don't want a friend.
and i don’t want a nodder.
do you know what i’m talking about?

she said,
i need someone to tell me,
how angry are you?
how happy? how sad?
show me!

she said,
i need someone to tell me,
what are you going to do about it?
show me. right now!

she said,
i need someone to tell me,
really? really?
you want to scream?
well then scream!

that's what i need,
she said.
can you oblige?
