Not Going to Call you Back

She had called me to remind me
     That I had forgotten to call back
               My mistake was answering
She wasn't listening to me now
       My mind refused to be attacked
                 Try to tell me why I did not hang up
I listened to her scream, her tone was the answer
      I was patient, calm, she became more enraged
                     The world she'd imagined made her queen
Consider this my revolution
I refuse to surrender my dreams
Nor obey a tyrant
Who screams rather than dialogue
With someone who was not an equal
