When communication ceases
And motives assumed
When Babel falls to pieces
Where friendship once bloomed
When shrugs are observed
And mistaken for pride
When body language discerned
As “they’re lazy, tongue-tied”
When texts lose their tone
And are read with suspicion
When they misplaced their phone
You’re given a decision
When you’re struggling and feel
Dismissed and ignored
When you’re hiding your real
Crying out to the Lord
You’re feeling forsaken
Your experience is true
But perhaps they’re mistaken
And they feel just like you?
