That time of year
Christmas comes quickly and I miss someone.
I feel the need for a companion
We’ve been in touch all semester but now
She is nowhere to be found.
Another year without a New Year’s kiss
…or a hug
We are closer than we’ve been in a while but things won’t cooperate
A long time since I’ve felt it, since I’ve thought it
And I thought this was my chance,
I was going to make this my chance
Dreams. Dreams can seem so possible
But I’ve learned you need to give them a nudge,
Get them started, participate, do something.
Otherwise they’re just sitting in your head, lifeless.
It’s a love story that I keep thinking will have a happy ending
But it will most likely just end.
And it won’t sell well because people like stories with endings.
