As the music plays
I hear my phone ring
My heart locks up
The old dream rushes back in
And takes me far far away
For just a split second
I travel the eternity and the universe
Choking on the hot flash of hope
But someone's waiting out there
On the line
So I hit the answer key
And the dream goes back in the drawer
And the dusty dark drawer
Closes with a screech
That wakes me up
To the routine caller
I smile and say
What can I do for you
And turn the music off
It is not you
You will never come back
Dear Recycle Bin
How ordinary indeed
How not worth writing
Wasting
Computer memory
