It's Only A Phone Call
I’m going to do this
That’s not to say I want to
That’s not to say I’m leaving
I’m steady here
If only it were more convenient
I couldn’t care less, though
Really in the long run…
Since there is always a tone of bubbling uneasiness
It’s always winter here
Or early early spring
I don’t think it ever changes
It seems like a vacuum
And I feel like a bird
God knows why
Perhaps because I’m fragile
I owe myself to her right now
Her and her birds
This is an accidental shrine of her beloved
I should kill my inhibitions and call her
She doesn’t understand
It’s guilt- she’s very accomplished in it
I need to do something
I’ll write a letter
Hello Tutu, I was just thinking about you. I know you’d probably prefer if I called, and I know it’s probably good to practice, but I hope this will brighten your day and be satisfactory, nevertheless. I wanted to say hello and I hope your week is going well- I’ll see you on Sunday- I have lots to tell you! Have a lovely day!
