Holiday Break

Call me next week, but don't talk to me
I'll be all alone, I won't hang up the phone
  -- as I always do due to this busy pace of a slave life.

I'll listen to the silence we make.

I'll close my eyes
  -- and maybe put you on hold for a minute if other phone lines ring to remind us to take a break from the temptation I'll get to reach through the phone and not just hold your hand but sleep with your arms protecting my breath.
