because the words I know you about to say just aren’t what I want to hear right now and so I have to go before you can finish saying it all to me.
You call and I ignore out of fear that the words that will be said won’t be so joyful this time of year.
And I just can’t bear not being in a good mood right now, so please just let me be right now and if what you have to say is not nice or good.
Can’t you just wait to say them because I just don’t want to deal with them right now, I want to stay on my hill of happiness.
I don’t want to slide down and be at the bottom and hear the cruel words pour out of your mouth after such a long day.
But, I know that I can’t hide forever and I need to listen to what you have to say so that I can accept it and move on.
