Dial Tone
Everyone seems preoccupied
Too much on their minds
I'm just an annoying distraction
My insignificant words lost among conversations
more important than me
I sit in silence
the words "I am alone"
loud in my head
you no longer have the ability to hear
what I don't say
You don't want me there
You don't say it
but I can tell
I feel forgotten and alone
I feel unimportant
I pick up the phone
hear the dial tone
not your voice
why would you be calling me
The world is going on without me and I'm left behind
pleading for someone to wait
