I'd look to the screen
To see the name at the top

In those seconds before I know
I'd turn into a little child
My whole body would tingle
Expectations so wild

If it was a message from you
My whole body would shake
And my face would contort
The biggest of smiles would then break

If the name wasn't yours
It was like a punch to the gut
It was like Christmas had been cancelled
Or it was "just my dumb luck"

My pod still makes noises
Even after you've left
For a split second I get excited
It's not nice when I forget
