Luke's Last Call

Luke’s been calling like this his whole life,

this time the answer was no different than in the past.

the only difference was this time,

this call,

this reaching,

This desperate call, to cling to someone, something.

this would be his last,

the last time Luke called his dad.

Wake him up, I need to talk to him.

Wake up my dad, I need him.

He wont’ wake up Luke,

We can’t get him to wake up.

Wake up my dad, I need to talk to him.

Wake him up!

Luke, he won’t wake up…..

Get him up, I need to talk to him…..

They are taking me to juvie.

Luke, he won’t wake up.

We can’t get him up.

When Luke’s need for someone was never greater,

he picked up the phone,

called his dad……

He wouldn’t wake up.

He died five minutes later......
