Monotone
The phone rings in the background, I lie on the couch, motionless, Slowly i move to answer it, Ive been waiting all day for that one phone call, That could change everything, As i listen to the monotone voice on the end, My world spins out of control, The strangers voice, tries her best to sound sympathetic, But i hear no emotion, Tears roll silently down my cheek, as she explains the severity of my situation to me, I never wanted children, id never even thought about it, But as i am told the chance has been ripped away from my prying arms, I never wanted anything more than i did at that single moment, The feeling still lingers as the days have passed, and it will always last, Now i know, i can never forget the monotone voice down the phone, Cold and dead to me, I will never forget.
