Kinds of TortureJanet Kuypers1/27/16
Note that no flowers are delivered to you
You had to be in another country
You even kept the sexual assault
I know, I know,
There is always a fine line you’ve drawn —
You’re on every web page I see,
Necessity, is what you say,
I know that phone will eternally be
I picked a random time.
When you answer,
before I hang up.
so I started by going to the airport
until I realized
So I’m sure you’ve checked the number daily,
I have no idea if you respond,
I’m sure you’re wracking your brain —
because these few simple words,
I know you say
it’s only a few words.
