why am i calling -------------------------------------------
in my broken voice i choke out hello
and i know you know
i didnt think youd answer the phone
after all you never did before
it would ring and ring and ring
and i know you sat listening to afraid to hear what i had to say
maybe you were right and i shouldve shut up
but you know me better than that
have i ever stopped talking before i was done
without being rudely interrupted
why do i even want to talk to you now
im done, i said my piece
you sat there and took it silently
bravo for your grand performance
acting as though you were even a little sorry
i know youre not
so again i ask myself
why was i even calling
subconsciously did i want you to pick up
and hear the sorrow in my voice
Another one that pertains to me and my ex...exqusitly done. I love the images, the words flow amazingly well, the subject is one i'm familiar with and heartfeltly connect with, and as always it is completely original.
hmmmmmmm it sounds like love lost. LIke you've just called your ex and tried to explain...that's what i did. I know sorry but i was in love with him. Anyways this was good..you could also view this in a way of a crush. Many ways to view poetry like many ways to view a poem. That was my outlook on it. I liked it.
