It's meant to be this dark.
-I'm sorry if you ever get annoyed
by the way this pitch-black void
always seems to be there.
It's just something I took with me,
when one day deciding my life had only one seat.
Bittersweet was the time,
when you came along,
and I automatically shifted on a dime.
Careful not to brush the pulsing, open air.
Or reveal conversations not meant to be there.
(Not meant to be here)
(Never meant to care)

If you want me to, I can tell the others,
they'll have to leave this place
as our space. Just for us two.
-But y'know, you can't see them anyways..
So to you the difference might be small.

I'd still be the same person, after all.

Y'know, sometimes when you're gone for a bit,
I like to think and sit or, sit and think
in one of the corners as I sink. Imagening a call.
And they're all
so very there.
But  we don't all sink.
Not a soul.
(Not us all.)
