Adieu My Love...

Today I said goodbye to a very dear friend. I never knew how much he really meant to me until I lost him. So often I would get through my day just looking at his beautiful face, knowing that he would give me good news. But today I had to let him go...
I am no longer a mobile communicator, I've been landlocked. After almost a full year of enjoying the freedom of a cell phone, I cancelled my service.
And now I see him lay there...nothing more than a clock and phone book that can play "Final Countdown" on demand. I feel like I've betrayed him. It happened so fast. I got my ridiculously expensive bill and decided on the spot that it was time to cancel. But I felt the remorse of the impetuous just a few moments later, and I realized how painful life will be without him.
He had such a fantastic number too, I could sing it so easily to the tune of "867-5309."
