So basically(…)
You don’t want me?
Famous words for such a man
of your caliber

From the world that now swallows
us whole

If you could have realized sooner
rather than later
That would have been great

I scheduled your appointment
Stood up you say?

Story of my life.

And the secretary
blows her smoke rings
on her cigarette break

And I breathe the aura
of your petrified smile

And we wait
outside

Billows of condensation
dancing off our clumsy lips

And you try to try
but I fail at what you do best

Story of my life.
