He Called Me

[adalger]

There goes my phone again,
Ringing ... ringing ...
A message from my pain,
Stinging ... stinging ...
"How am I doing? I'm okay -- I'm doing fine.
Glad your life is happy, don't concern yourself with mine."
I lie here all alone,
Bleeding ... bleeding ...
I'm longing for your touch,
Needing ... needing ...
I hold the knife you left me, recognize the blade.
I used it once -- sometimes I think I should have stayed
Where someone knew my game
Lying ... lying ...
Now no one knows my name
Dying .. dying ...
Here on the floor so cold I'm finally alone.
I feel my fingertips start slipping on the phone.
There goes my phone again,
Ringing ... ringing ...
A message from my pain
Stinging ... stinging ...

That was actually the intent. Good to know it worked! :)
