RIC S. BASTASA - indirectly...

i could have told you
i loved the way how Stevie Wonder
sang that song... i just called to say

i love you.

i care much for you
the usual nights that do not give me sleep
summer times have become
lonelier

i sent the message
and got the usual response

'Stop it! I don't want to be hurt again! '

i'm so sorry.
Thanks.

Perhaps i shall call again sometime
after another
25 years?
