The Phone That Couldn't Get Through

by dew_raindrops


2022 New Year's Eve, I was waiting for the train.

I picked up my phone and dialed your number.

The next thing I knew, my tears started rolling down.


On the phone, I begged for you to stay.

Hateful conversations that I wished you would take it back.

All those 5 years with you washed away;

when you said,

it's impossible anymore.


You left me in despair.

I was heartbroken.


Now and then,

I tried to dial again,

but you were never reachable.


It's like you have dispersed into the billion stars at night.


Now that another year is almost ending. I still think about us sometimes.

I've been where I am but you are nowhere to be found.
