Emotion’s Call

first love

A number.

 

A dial.

 

A greeting.

 

A smile.

 

Regressed to a child.

 

Time stops for a while.

 

The past is rehashed.

 

Some silence.

 

Some laughs.

 

A lump in a throat.

 

A tear on a lash.

 

Alternate paths

considered at length.

 

The longing to ask,

but so little strength.

 

The utter of stutters,

but absence of words

that first flowed so freely

when voices first heard.

 

Metamorphosis from

ease to awkwardness.

 

Tongue tethered and numb

like Novocained gums.

 

Silly thoughts chasing

the memories racing

throughout a cortex

in deep contemplation.

 

“You still there?” in the ear

returns focus to clear.

 

Romantically hopeless,

a mutter of “Yeah.”

 

Reason recovered.

 

Eased into other

less pleasing, but safer

topics to cover.

 

Pretense exhausted.

 

Farewells being served.

 

Good-byes are spoken,

but no clicks are heard.

 

Line remains open.

 

The silence is cursed

by each other’s long

that the other’s click first

 

like when they were new
