THE REASON I AM CALLING
The reason I am calling
is because I love you.
The reason I am calling
is because I miss you.
The reason I am calling
is because he's not good enough for you
and never will be.
The reason I am calling
is because NO ONE is good enough for you
and never will be.
The reason I am calling
is that there are days
where, out of the blue,
no matter how long it's been
or how little I've thought about you
in the interim
I begin to think about you
like an imaginary itch
on a phantom limb
that just needs to be scratched
until it falls off
or is satisfied
and this is one of those days.
The reason I am calling
is because your voice heals me
sometimes
- about as often as it sickens me.
The reason I am calling
is that I want to
I have to
I yearn to.
It seems, sometimes
that I am biologically commanded
to do this thing
and though I wish it could stop
it cannot
and that, I guess,
is the reason I am calling.
