Ringtone Rendevous

Midnight hums, the world’s asleep,

Your name lights up, my heart skips a beat.

I shouldn’t smile, but I always do,

Another late-night rendezvous.

You say it’s safe, we’re far apart,

No harm in talking, heart to heart.

But your voice drips through these wires,

And feeds a quiet fire.

It’s our ringtone rendezvous,

Every buzz pulls me back to you.

We’re miles away, and it’s not a sin—

At least that’s what I keep believin’ in.

No touch, no proof, just midnight truth,

In our ringtone rendezvous.

You tell me things you can’t tell her,

I breathe you in through every word.

You say you wish I lived next door,

And I pretend I don’t want more.

We laugh too long, we talk too deep,

About the dreams we never keep.

You hang up, I stare at the wall,

Waitin’ on the next late night call.

It’s our ringtone rendezvous,

Every buzz pulls me back to you.

We’re miles away, and it’s not a sin—

At least that’s what I keep believin’ in.

No touch, no proof, just midnight truth,

In our ringtone rendezvous.

Screens between us, hearts aligned,

Your voice caresses through the line.

Every rule I meant to keep

Slips away when you start to speak.

It’s our ringtone rendezvous,

Every buzz pulls me back to you.

You say goodnight, I close my eyes—

But I don’t sleep, I just replay the lies.

No touch, no proof, just midnight truth,

In our ringtone rendezvous.

The room is dark, my thoughts are too,

I live for one more sound from you—

Our ringtone rendezvous.
