Roommates Always
by Dr. Scott Urquhart
Good morning
Hello how are you
Ah well
Since you asked
My heart has been
Ripped through my eyes
You know
and
I’m sitting on the couch
Wishing for comfort
That’s so far away
And wanting to
Time travel with liquid
But those days are behind me
And I let her know
Said she hopes
For similar self-restraint
Asked me how I am
I apologized for unsent messages
And told her how I felt
How I really liked her
How I really like her
And she said that’s ok
You don’t have to be sorry
And I said something else
Leading to the topic of isolation
Said she likes to be alone
I get it
It’s the majority
of my life
you know
I’d like to share it
