Just a call

Ten inbox messages

Ten unread inbox messages

Is it just me or the phone seems heavier nowadays?

My fingers too numb?

The call button too far away?

Ten inbox messages

For me?

I’m surprised they responded

Though we do share a past

A past of smiles and arguments and notes passed in class

I... am surprised they responded

Because the past is... in the past

Ten inbox messages

A constant vague pressure in my head

It wouldn’t even take five minutes

Just five minutes to reply or probably make a call...

Five minutes to tell them I miss them and I still cherish the times we spent together

...Five endless minutes

Ten inbox messages

Still waiting

Unread

I want to reply

Because I do miss them

Value them

But, not yet-

Not now.

For now...it is just me

Just me and the phone which seems too heavy...
