Cellphone tower
In a field alone
Standing up so it can help
Standing out so it can reach
Far and wide past what I see
Cellphone tower
Oh cellphone
You remind me
Of me
Blinking that same red light
Through the weather and isolation
Through the monthly maintenance
Through those who enter your life
Turning memories into fuel
To reach all the way to the top
Top of the finish line
Cellphone tower
You remind me of me
About this poem
Cellphones towers are so similar to people who are always helping others in there life but who also never received love or maintenance the way they want.
