The Question

A peanut butter and jelly sanwich at one in the morning.

I missed your call around eleven.
I'm so sorry, honey.
Couldn't sleep since...
Hoping you would, perhaps, attempt it once more.
So I sit here with my sandwich and milk,
Thinking--maybe too heavily--about our future;
Betting my precious little remaining romantic hopes on what will likely not happen.
Expecting too much of you.

And yet: you might come through.
