Call
by Mark Sherrick

I’m sitting at home
Up in my room
The radio is playing
And I’m wondering
Wondering why the phone hasn’t rung
“I’ll call you tomorrow”
She said
“So we can say goodbye”
Because she’s leaving
For a long time
I’m sitting at home
Up in my room
Staring at the wall
And I’m wondering
Wondering why the phone hasn’t rung
Could it be she’s already gone?
I hope not as she is one of my
Only friends left
Practically my sister
I’m sitting at home
Up in my room
Wondering why the phone hasn’t rung
Suddenly realizing that I don’t
Care anymore.
