Calls for Help

Conveniently unavailable
Nobody's answered
My call for help
Heard it so many times
It echoes in my head;
Your call has been forwarded
To an automatic
Voice message system...
Where are you?
At the tone
Please record your message
When you are finished recording
You may kill yourself or
Press one for more options
To leave a call back number
Press five
I'm hurting...
Every call for help
Goes unanswered...
It's hard to feel wanted
When you are ignored
