Sorry if I don't call you

I wrote this last week but I had technical difficulties posting it. I just had a phone call that inspired me to dig it out and try again.

It hurts when someone I know gets pregnant - I want to be happy for them but it reminds me of what I've lost.


Sometimes I'm scared to call my friends
The ones from out of town
The ones who I haven't talked to in a while
The ones who I know are trying
The ones who might be pregnant by now
And might be ready to announce it
The ones who already have children
Who interrupt their mother's phone call
And babble in the background
It can be like a knife in the heart
And there is nothing to soothe my broken heart this night.
