At the other end of the line i'd hear you humming and when I'd point it out you'd apologize and you'd let silence create a void.  You'd tell me to speak or hang up but all I wanted to say is that I didn't want you to stop and I never wanted you to apologize.  I was always calm with you on the line, even in our silence. I miss your hymns. Why did you stop calling?
