1 Missed Call

With a sinking feeling
I realise
I missed it.
Your voice
Your laughter
Your low soothing tone
Running like melted butter
To the place where I matter.
I can't believe I missed
The pouring
Of Sunlight
Into my day.

I, too, can relate. Though, I wonder, like with other pieces where this topic is the focus...is the recipient of this piece feeling the same way the sender does? I certainly hope so. Excellent piece!
