Night Calls - 1. That Night
I didn’t answer your texts that night
Ten months ago
That night
You told me you had come back from work
That night
You were sick but had bills to pay
That night
You kept texting me
That night
Telling me that you loved me
That night
That you loved me but not the way I did
That night
“You and my mother are the only ones that really have loved me”, you said
That night
I read the messages you sent me
That night
I did not answer you at all
That night
“The next time I see you”
You wrote
“I will not love you the same as tonight”
And it was your last text sent to me
That night
You stopped the texting
After
That night
I did not seek you
I did not wonder about you
Since
That night
I called you recently, though
And pretended I was looking for your brother
She, your sister, answered and immediately recognized my voice
I corrected myself and asked for you
She said that you had died
Three days after
That night
Alone
No friends
No lovers
