"I Used To"

I used to walk around with my phone in my hand or clipped on my side so I wouldn't miss a call from her, I used to.

I used to hit the ignore button on my phone whenever my friends were calling because I couldn't rip myself away from talking to her, to answer their call, I used to.

I used to sleep with my phone next to my pillow just in case she should happen to wake up in the middle of the night and want to call me so that I could hear her voice, I used to.

I used to take the phone into the shower with me and hang it on the shower curtain because I didn't want her to ever think I was ignoring her, I used to.

I used to take a chance while I was driving, knowing that I didn't have an ear piece at the time and I would risk the chance of getting a ticket because when she would call me, I would hold the phone to my ear, I used to.

I used to neglect things that needed to be started or completed because I was waiting and waiting for her to call me, I used to.

I used to not do a lot of things when I was caught up in her world because her world seemed to matter more to me than my own, I used to -- but not anymore.

I'm not used to being without her or hearing from her, but I will have to get used to it now cuz that's what "I was used to" for so long.
