if you knew

if you knew
how much i
wanted to call
you tonight
there'd be other
colors to come.

all today
i'd been thinking
of talking to you
and planning
on nothing else
but
then, as plans
often go,
the wind came
and suddenly
it didn't seem like
such a good idea
to call you
tonight it
seemed like
a bad idea.

if you knew
that i know
that it's no one's
fault, maybe that'd
make sense of it.

the color was
pulled tight
tonight is all
and sometimes
it happens.

i long to hear
your voice.
