To Leave the person hanging
There is something in our culture
that says it is OK to ignore someone
who is trying to communicate
okay just to leave the person hanging
I guess it’s easier that way
to simply shut the person out
with no explanation
Nothing, deafening silence
The feelings
of the other person
don’t matter
The person, in a sense, does not exist
It’s okay to leave the person hanging
It’s okay, that person
does not matter
That person might as well
not exist, people can be cold
that way
