Hey, it’s me
Do you remember who I am
The girl you used to love,

the woman who took all

of your time
I hear the recognition in your voice

the inflection of a slight smile

as you realize it’s me on

the other end of the phone

It’s been awhile you say
I agree with mumbles

symbolizing awareness

of the time that has passed

since the last time we spoke
What have you been doing you ask,

apparently caring though I

know it’s just for conversations sake
Graduate school, work, living my

life I say

After some awkward silences

and barely heard sighs

I let you know my reason for calling,

the news more than just saying hi

and missing an old flame
You sigh politely and I can hear

the worry in your tone of voice
Don’t worry; it will be okay you say
I guess we’ll see I reply
I just wanted you to know the

situation, the hazards I

soon have to face
Call me; let me know what

the results say you tell me
Sure thing_
more awkwardness and sighs

I just wanted you to know I say

and now I'm gonna let you go
Alright, be careful you say
We hang up; I look at my feet

and wonder why I even bothered

NEXT?
Why don't you look at The Interview
