He calls;
I'm vulnerable;
I don't pick up the phone.
He sends a message;
I am relieved;
I don't have to call back.
The next day;
I am depressed;
I need to talk to someone.
I lay on my bed
He calls
I watch his name blinking on the screen;
Calling me "rescue is here",
and my mind tells me "the devil is here";
I ignore.
He hangs up
I feel guilty and yet,
I feel great relief
I defeated the devil
