If I call will you answer?

I listen for your question

But the phone doesn’t ring

Silence is golden or so I’ve been told

Why do I feel the need to be cold?

Who told you to act with such disdain?

Meekness can keep attention’s venue

But only when she’s sincere

All this time I thought you knew

Silly I didn’t mean to assume

The confusion we caused will be easy to assess

Please prescribe the answer if you know what is best

If only you knew, then would you?

I know you don’t want to leave

wondering where will you go?

Could you fend off a decade of silence?

Upon your return what would you say?

I ask you again what would you say?
