dear loved one who calls in the night....

dear loved one who has been calling in the night..

I am kind of amazed and wondering what has changed in your life. I am happy to hear from you. You asked if I was sleeping.. yes.. one or two times since you have started calling late in the night on your way home, I am usually sleeping. But love is.. waking up to answer the phone until you reach home.

I have not asked you as yet what has brought about the change and why you are calling. I know that , sleepy as I am, I am trying to keep the conversation neutral and not talk personal stuff.  While I imagine that you have a need for someone to talk to on your way home, I cant imagine that it would be me after years after we ended the friendship.

When you hang up the phone, I wonder if I am like a sweet man, an outside man.  Now that I am 45, I have to laugh at myself  at how I have ended up with late night conversations about nothing really with a loved one who is married .

I don't want to marry you. I like hearing from you. I want to know though,  man that I am, what it is that you want.. so I could ensure you get it and feel happy that you have resumed calling and talking to me.

And I know that if I try to ask you this the next time you call, if you call, we will start arguing and then things will be back to where they were..
