Why won't you call?

I’ve lost all direction

As to where I’m going

Where was I going

I can’t remember

I’m so sidetracked by your absence

It’s cold by my side as the wind blows past

The loneliness crawls up my spine and flows out my eyes

I look down at my phone

Waiting for the lights of your call to reflect in my tears

I’m frozen by the numbed feelings in my fingers

Gripping the phone with a death grip

Afraid if I let go I’ll give up on all hope

I want to hear your voice again

It’s been too long

I wish for the ringing just so it can wake me from this trance

Why won’t you call?
