I LIKE TO SING ALONE
I like to sing alone in my room
and feel the opera around me
My attention draws towards a girl in the mirror
She was staring back at me
It had taken awhile to realize who she was
We stared until time awoke us
and today became tomorrow
I turn to see my clock
a minute before the alarm went off
What a shame
A nice minute of sleep I could’ve had
and an extra minute of the girl I want to see again
I want to ask who she was
and what am I supposed to do
and why was she far
Her heart is not wooden like mine
She never seemed to worry
as if ache didn’t exist
in this big empty house
If we meet again maybe we’d be friends
