Every time I walk on the lonely path
Searching for someone else to share a life
The manic mental laugh slithers in now
The phrase spoken in hushed tones across town
“No thanks”
I know it means nothing right here and now.
But, regardless of that I’m fooling myself
To think on this phrase, some would call it pathetic or a healthy introspection
I don’t care what the answer is
I wonder what I could’ve done better!
