For the un-answered telephone (by jcsonny)

I know of a number that never picks up

it rings like most do, but it never picks up

never… picks up.

I’ve called it so much that now,

even

the sound of the ringing seems tired.

Even that little anxiety causing

sound is becoming afraid of me,

putting it back to work.

I know that can’t be it…

I know that,

that thought is crazy, very crazy

because I’m the only thing it has.

I give it purpose,

for the other side

of the phone.

Though we’d probably be

better off,

without our desperation;

contently existing alone.
