missed connections

tried to text him
the other day

he said the shower
was beating him down

and he couldn't read me

tried to call him
the other eve

he said the world 
was taking him over

and he couldn't hear me

one day
the universe will be 
all in line

and i'll be able
to reach across 
the miles

and really get
the chance to say
what i want to say

but by then 
i'll have forgotten
what i was thinking

and all he'll get 
is a silly meme
a couple of smiley faces
and a link to a forgotten song

because that's how 
we talk now

pictures and song
hieroglyphics and long pauses

over and over again

(brrrrriiiiinnnng)
