The call to avoid

The call-in the silence, do not pick.
Hold your bawl, do not kick
You’ll lose your world by a word
When you speak.

When your heartbeats beat in bits
For the world is a long dark hall
With only you in it.
You look for a cross to redeem you,
A refuge you seek.
Then comes a call in the silence,
But you’re unsure to pick
You hear the hello before you speak
But the voice isn’t father’s
You tried to hang up before you pick
Finding healing before you fall sick
The world now is a deep red sea,
with only you it trying to walk on water,
But the water walks on you.

The call-in the silence, do not pick.
Hold your bawl, do not kick
You’ll lose your world by a word
When you speak.
