I took the cellphone from off of the driveway,
I am a seven year old lost boy.
I cradled it carefully in my hands,
My new obsession, my new toy.
I hid for hours as mother cooked,
As brother studied his vengeance books.
I gleefully played with the screen,
checking apps feeling like a teen.
I hid it from every oncoming eye,
This would be purely mine.
A strange call came from up the street,
A child was going door to door.
Dread hit my heart and carried me.
It wasn't my phone I couldn't ignore.
I would have to give the thing over
