Why Didn't You Call?

[civilservant]

Listening to you on this phone,

Telling me what you've done,

Needing the solace of anothers' voice,

As you reach the end of your run,

It might be what I volunteered for,

That dosent mean I won't mourn you,

The fact we've never met in person,

Dosent make your death less true,

 

Ragged breathing growing raspy and weak,

You're sensing the ending near,

Why didn't you call and talk to us,

When you were thinking clear?

Instead leaving it 'till far too late,

To tell us that you're blue,

It make's me cry, I'm human also,

And it'll kill your family too.

 

 

Dedicated to my friends and colleagues.
