Telephone

an original poem

By Jason WhitePublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Do you remember when we talked on the phone all the time?

We couldn't wait to get home

So we could pick up that phone

And talk to each other about nothing at all.

Our parents would bitch and moan

Because we saw each other just before.

We would hear how it isn't good to spend so much time.

And when I was out with my friends

I would lose some of the quarters meant to check-in

Just to say, "I love you", one more time.

Do you remember those days?

Those days, we would talk?

When we valued each other?
