Push To Talk

All I hear is dead air
The hiss of past arguments 
It leaves me statically charged 
Clinging desperately to wisps of past conversations 
Trying to shake off the fluff
And get back to a two way conversation 
Instead of talking to these walls
I’m tired of blank looks and flat replies
Why do I have to push to talk?
My hands ache from drawing out your replies
Filling in the void between sentences
Reaching for something that’s already gone
