The Unexpected Phone Call Poem by Bradley Lester

I fell asleep that night, thinking of our lust
It was the very last time, tomorrow you would leave
It was a peaceful sleep, warm and tender times
I thought of naked bodies, I wished I could retrieve

My phone began to ring, I woke up wide awake
I picked it up and stammered, and heard your sweet soft voice
You sounded oh so happy, and I was oh so glad
I got your call that night, it was I think your choice

We spoke in rhymes and riddles, laughing playfully
You actually called me up, I'm glad my phone was on
I normally put if off, but something told me no
And now I know that reason, I wasnt really wrong

We spoke and then hung up, a saddened filled my heart
Your voice still echoed on, I fell asleep at last
I really felt so honored, for you who made that call
A woman actually called me, I knew that this could last
