The phone occupies a small corner of my bed -
yet you occupy all the corners in my head.
I lie awake, wait for your call -
reduced to apathy, is this all?
Another waking dream, so real, so true -
all I can dream of is you, is you.
I cannot go forward, cannot go back -
I should give up on you, go and pack.
Instead I lie in wait, for what?
I ache to give us one last shot.
If you don't call -
I think I'll bawl.
