the answer to a prayer

i have prayed
for an answer to you and me

shall i stay or shall i go
or will i rock your casbah again

yeah we are ended
but like a dozen other times,
did you believe it
did i?

despite the short passage of time
our history
had a way of repeating itself

so where is the finality

my answer came

in your unfollowed up call
asking if i am okay

no matter
what is going on in my life
what my sore battered body may need
be it physical
emotional
or just a friend
i cannot provide you with what you need

so

you do not need me now
i have become an unnecessary phone call
you are too busy to make

untill you have an itch
you want scratched
or your bed needs to be made
unmade
and made again

buy some anti-itch cream
will ya
