Touch

Touch
Touch
Touch
Light a candle
Exactly at 5pm
Fumble
Where did you leave the phone?
Jerk sideways
Your heart
Don’t want to see the call missed
Eight days
Throat swelling
It’s no one
Just someone here that called
Brain racing, searching
Oh!
You forgot to light the incense
Stare at the phone
Still not working
Damn
Maybe…..if you go for a drive
Forget your Bluetooth
That always works
Five hours later
Sitting in a gas station parking lot
Crying
Go home
Falling asleep on the couch
Nightmares full of
 Forgotten-ness
Fear
Death
Sirens wake you
It’s your phone
“Hey Baby-I miss you-how was your day?”
