Waiting

over the weekend
I kept my cell phone in hand...

Hoping to hear from...someone who...
struck a chord in me.

The phone never rang.
He never called.
I thought about calling
or...texting...
but I am tired of the impersonal forms
of communication today.

He said..."I've been thinking about you."
I guess.....not enough
to take the lethargy out of his fingers
so he could dial the number ....to call me.

If it wasn't for dashed hopes...
I wouldn't have any hope at all.
So ...moving on.
Foot note to self.
Waiting by the phone sucks.
SO...stop waiting.

I guess some calls just
weren't  meant to be.
