Rambles On Life

Last night I was shown what I’ve been missing

In the simplest of places

I was at a pub when they arrived

They sat together on one side of the table

As close to each other as they could be

She laid her head on her lovers shoulder

They whispered sweet nothings into each other’s ears

I couldn’t help but glance at them again and again

And I think they knew

They knew that I was envious

She kissed her lovers neck and I drank my soda

She caressed her palm and I glanced at the tv

My friend kept talking to me oblivious to my change of mood

Oblivious to the fact that I was falling

For there in that pub I saw what I had been running from

In that corner booth

Wrapped in cotton in denim

Sat love

A love that I’ve never had

 

And I think I fear that I will never know it intimately

I think I fear that I will always be alone
