The Mute Button
by Betty
I was talking to him the other day.
When I heard him say:
"I'm on my way".
On your way?
"Who you talking to", I say.
Oh you heard? Those Words?
"Who you talking to", I say?
"you wasn't supposed to hear"
not your ear"
"What?", I say.
"I put you on mute."
So I thought.
"Mute?, To say?...."
"To tell her: I am on my way.
But.....II still love you anyway."
