it's almost three am

and I can't believe I missed your call.
the hours slid by on a rollercoaster track, racing through my mind, blurs of colors and loud music with no end. my heart raced all night and you were nowhere near me.

I fell asleep listening to my own chaos, instead of your voice like music in my ears.

I was young and stupid then, but I'm older now - please still need me in the morning.

_____

2:22 a.m. You have four missed calls.

9:16, 9;17, 9:21, 9:58.

For an hour, you were missed, but you wouldn't even pick up the phone. How could you be so heartless...

You have three unheard messages. First unheard message. Second unheard message. Third unheard message. First skipped message...
