The title of this poem is “Empty Envelopes”
But it should be “Empty Promises.”
I didn’t want to make it too obvious.
Though, wasn’t my disappointment clear?
Wasn’t it obvious that I could tell that you weren’t here?
You’re not present or prepared to be there,
to be the person that you said cared.
Maybe this poem should be called “Empty Envelopes,” after all.
Because your promises are as empty as my inbox.
