Disheartened Ramblings
It was so uncomfortable,
The tension: Like two strangers
Just waiting to step on each others toes.
Don't put your face so close to mine
I wouldn't want you
To do me any favors!
It's been almost a week.
I'm getting angsty, I'm getting anxious,
I'm getting frustrated.
I need a cigarette!
Maybe I should listen.
Maybe they're right.
Did I impose myself here?
They couldn't be any further from the truth.
I'm not holding on to anything.
How could I? It was never mine in the first place.
Today I decide and tomorrow I wait.
It's not just another Saturday
No, this one has some weight.
Stupid? Not for long.
Friends? I won't say goodbye.
I wonder how long it will take to realize I'm gone.
I wonder if you'll call.
