To The Girl Down the Street Who Used to Call

to the girl down the street
who used to call:

seeing you nowadays
feels like losing my breath.

I know it will come back - 
I hope it will come back.

but in that moment
I still can’t breathe.
and my heart is pounding
because what if,
my breath doesn’t return;
what if,
you forget to call back
- again -
and what if,
this time,
we are lost forever.
