You Never Call - A Short Story

Pic Credit : Google 


I caught myself
constantly calling you
in the past nights, and
you never called back. 

I wanted to envelop
into warmth of your voice. 
Is there some alternate
of your loved one’s mouthpiece? 

This darkness engulfed me
in night, like a hell.  
Does network properly
work after death?
A long phone call is
awaited.
