What does 2 Samuel 14:32 mean?

Absalom said, 'I sent for you and you ignored me. I wanted you to go to the king for me and ask why I came back from Geshur if I'm just going to be ignored. I'd be better off if I were still there. Let me see the king. If I'm guilty, let him kill me.' 2 Samuel 14:32 - Modern Text Bible

(Absalom expresses his frustration and desperation, wanting either reconciliation or closure.)
