She Knew. No More.

He said it'd be ok.
Give her a call.
Man, he said. It's been a while.
Take a chance.
it just might make you smile.

He took her number.
But he failed to see.
It was her landline.
All messages unheard and unseen

He knocked on her door.
no motion no sound
her son came to greet him.
knowing He'd be let down.

She's a hardworking woman.
with a young boy at home
independent and strong
she prefers to be left alone.

She knew... No More.
