I used to have to charge my phone at least twice a day
constant text
constant calls
were always were talking
learning about each other
despite the years, we shared

I used to risk injury by sleeping on my phone as it charged
refusing to get off the phone
even if it was to listen to your breathing
I still wanted to hear it
a reminder
that I wasn't alone

Now I sit
Drowning out our memories
trying to ignore your voice
and my phone sits silent
only at 62% remaining
at midnight
