The Phone Call

You called
My heart skipped a beat when I heard the message

As your words flowed over my answering machine
memories of before raced through my mind

All the good came to mind
I found myself wanting to try this all over again

I called

Your voice came over the phone
just as it always had

Smooth and calming
sending chills just like it was the first time

I couldn't help but wonder
why you decided to call after all this time

At first it was just small talk
but my heart couldn't take it anymore

I had to tell him
I missed him

He gave no response
So I just had to ask
why

His answer was just as harsh as it has always been
He acted like he didn't care

Like the only reason he called was just because of boredom.
My heart broke a little all over again

The rest of the conversation was short and quiet
I let him get to me all over again

In a matter of an hour
I was back where I started 5 months ago

I couldn't understand why he would call just to talk

Didn't he miss me
Didn't he care

We hung up the phone
and there I sit

Wondering how a simple phone call
Could break my heart all over again
