I try to fill my time
waiting for you to call.
Sitting bored out of my mind
wishing you were here.
Minutes tick by so slowly
still no word from you.
I start to think
I've upset you somehow.
Wondering if that is the case
I begin to pace the room.
Silence can be deafening
the mind plays terrible tricks.
Upset at your stillness
I yell at my phone.
I didn't want to talk to you anyway.
Yet when the phone
finally plays your song
My heart soars, my eyes light up,
and I can't seem to stop smiling.
All is right, all is forgiven,
and all is forgotten.
