NaPoWriMo #28 - Phone calls
Phone calls
It was not busy as we talked, and no-one could hear
save you, who stood with one eye on duty and one on me,
your face filling up with concern. You were not the first
I had told but the third, and this was reflective
of where you stood with your back to the room
and your two feet still on the wooden floor.
Excitement filled my lungs almost as quickly as the words
on the cool night air as I walked home alone, one ear
on the chatter of a homecoming, one on the swish of trees
