Some things I had to say

Influence

Should I really stay awake?
Call you back? Oh, I should?!
And what shall we say?
You say so much without
Words.
I listen to the click, click, click
As your fingers glide across the keys.
You say so much
About Allen, epigraphs, and tulips
About failure and park benches.
"I want to be in bed. It's
5:22," you said.
Shall we sleep? Or just breathe
Deeply listening to the
Soothing waves of breath
Crashing against the receivers.
No words.
You say so much without
Words.
"You want to call be back."
"Don't obey me. No. Don't."
Should I really stay awake?
Call you back? Oh, I should!
You say so much.
And I will.
