PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I hear the phone,

ringing in my ear,

but when I pick it up,

no one is there.

Just the lonely beat,

of a dial tone.

Waiting for someone,

to dial a number,

call someone,

and talk for hours.

Something I haven’t done,

in quite a long time.

I try,

but you’re never there.

How can we make this last,

if we hardly talk?

You know I love you,

more than anything else,

but it hurts,

when we hardly talk.

I’m not saying,

that I want things,

between us,

to come to an end.

But how can you expect me,

to continue loving you,

when we hardly talk?
