When The Skype Haunts




I heard the Skype ringing
I searched for my laptop, it was off
The Skype kept on ringing
I reached for the plug, it was tangled

I needed to turn on the laptop
The Skype call might end
I must answer it

I started crying
I slammed the laptop on the floor
"Why wouldn't you turn on?!"

The call ended 

I listened hard
No more ringing -- only sobs
I was awakened by my sobs
It was just a dream 

A nightmare

My heart wanted to make that Skype call
But no one will answer
Glenn is not on the other line.
