I'll call.

I know I will.
But I pray, for once,
that you don't answer.

Because your voice,
a gentle whisper through the phone,
telling me again that you no longer care,
is the last thing
my heart will be able to take.

Please don't pick it up.
You know what I want.
You know you can't give me it.

Don't tell me
what I already know.
