Why Now?

She wakes to her phone vibrating ever so softly under her head
which makes her jump out of her skin and
in one of those moments when she is the only one
that can hear herself scream as her words are bouncing around in her head she asks
Damm, what do they want from me this early?  
Her next thought is; do I really want to hear this now?
Then in one motion she looks at the caller ID thinking
Oh, they can wait

Do they know she was in the middle of the type of dream
one only writes about in the most private of journals?
Just as she picks up where she left off in her dream
her phone vibrates once again 
Why now, can’t you wait a few more minutes?
She asks the phone as if it were a person

She looks at the caller ID once more and
sees that the call is coming from the same number as before so
in the sweetest voice she can muster she answers the phone
To her surprise the caller replies
“Good morning beautiful”
What he doesn’t know is he’s the one
 she’s been dreaming of all this time
The Why now question is finally answered
