Julie Achilles Poet Free verse

The Invisible Killer

I hear the phone ringing
I know who it is
I am afraid to answer it
I press accept and wait
now I know
I stand alone just inside the church
the church that is empty and still
I do not listen to the words
this is the end
no goodbyes
the invisible killer called.
