Do you have a minute?
I just need someone to talk to
Sorry to call you so late
Terrible thoughts are running through my mind
Recently I’ve been feeling overwhelmed about - you know, stuff
All I want is some company - nothing serious
Can you just stay awake with me until we get silly?
Thank you for understanding
I needed that laugh
Ow, my sides hurt!
Now I can relax

AW, this made me think of all the people I like to call when I need a distraction!! I loved this!!!!
Lovely poem, Lesley, and right on the nail too, in its sentiments!
I haven’t talked to someone all night on the phone in years I miss the days when that was a regular thing by the days I mean my youth lol. Fantastic poem Leslie
So cute!
You have a way of taking everyday things that many would take for granted and really showing how special they are! Well done, Leslie! This is great!
Oh how I wish I had someone like that. Wonderful poem!
I love how you end the poem , Well done 😊
Glad you managed to relax and feel better , great entry
Sweet and so uplifting! ❣️
Awesome and relatable!!! Loved it!!!💖💖💕
We have all taken (and made) calls like this from time to time! 😁
I love this! It's always so comforting to have a friend you can just call up, be silly with, and get your mind off things. 🤗❤️ Awesome entry; truly one of the best distractions - silliness! ❤️❤️
Best feeling ever
Late night calls 😉❤️🔥❗
