Out of the blue he calls 22 months after nothing and he calls.... she sits silently as the tears stream down her cheeks... he may never know they're there. A little piece of her heart begins to ache... the piece that finds the familiar in his voice.... the nervous chuckle he does... and then he asks if she's ok... Just a shock to hear from you is all she claims... Unexpected is all... He replies and the conversation carries on... talk about the baby between them, the one he hasn't seen in 22 months... I thought you didn't want me around... I never said that.... You never responded back... You gave me an ultimatum... how could I? I didn't think you wanted her... (just like you didn't want me she thinks)... I never through away the little album you made me... or the toolbox you gave me... the tears come back a little the ache grows a little stronger... no don't feel that! She tells herself... and thinks about the cd he made that she has tucked away... You're the only one I've ever been with who is exactly what she claims to be... but I didn't think I was right for you... being with you... I always felt guilty... like I was never good enough... How did I make you feel that way?... it was never anything you did... it was just YOU... who you are how you are... you're almost perfect... and that's intimidating....
