Talia - The Call

Phone on the table1

Damn why couldn't I speak2

His voice, so soothing3

Damn why didn't I speak!!!4

I stared at the phone5

Silence now filled the room6

I pondered what I would have said7

I probably would have swooned8

Holding his card in hand9

I lay back and dreamt of him10

His beautiful eyes, his gentle voice11

Such a glorious sin12

"Joshua, hmm Joshua"13

The whisper spilled from my lips14

I dreamt about him holding me15

Strong arms around my hips16

Suddenly a screeching sound17

Then the radio started to play18

Alas, it was just the alarm19

A signal of the new day20

  • Haha that's funny--I have dreams like that all the time! I like how this was light-hearted, it's a pleasant change from all of the other doom and gloom stuff I've read so far .

    Really cute piece that is very sincere to what we feel when we find a special person ^^. My favorite part: Alas, it was just the alarm19

    A signal of the new day20

    Was beautifully written, even in the part that is about an object.

  • Wow, sweet and beautifully written!

    Well, I have to say, there really wasn't much to this. Not enough to really grasp what she's feeling. Besides love of course. But I mean... it's just a snippet of time.

    the poem is fairly god but the plot seems a bit pointless, just a dream? still I quite like the flow of it, but there are a lot of love poems like this.

    beginning: 2, language: 3, plot: 1, ending: 1, characters: 2.

    Lovely cadence. I especially liked ""Joshua, hmm Joshua"/The whisper spilled from my lips / I dreamt about him holding me / Strong arms around my hips" Nice.
