Your Call

I'm lying here in my bed,
Staring at my phone,
Lying here in silence,
Utterly alone.

I'm waiting for the ring to break the quiet,
And Your voice to be on the line,
When I answer that call,
I used to answer all the time.

What happened when,
I'd get that call and then,
It'd always be your voice I hear,
Bringing me away from all I fear.

Your voice was like the lullaby,
I needed to sing me to sleep,
You were the one and only,
I wanted to keep.

Now your slipping away,
No matter how hard I grab hold,
Something is pulling you away,
And it's something I can't control.

So I sit in silence,
Waiting for that call,
So utterly alone,
Hearing, feeling, nothing at all.
