The Trauma

The phone
rang but it
was on
silent

maybe you
woke me
to find
mom's voicemails but

I sort of knew
you were gone
before I got to
the hospital.

    Both of your poems are wonderful, but I especially liked the first. The words flow together very well, and its content hit hard. So simple, yet very powerful! I felt like I could feel the underlying emotion supporting these words,not an easy thing to portray in such a short poem. good job (:
