Click here to hear the poet read his words:

call me

call me when
your next love leaves you
when you feel down and blue

call me when
you think you need me
because you’ve no one else to turn to

call me when
you want someone to talk to
and no one else will listen

call me when
you’re alone and frightened
that your life is sad and over

call me when
that hole is growing
inside your broken lying heart

call me anytime
or preferably
never
