and hey
I fell asleep at your feet
bristled the hairs on my back
when morning cracked in the room
sun shine right on my eyes
and I tried to fight off the assault
but at that point
I was up
I was going
I was long fucking gone
and maybe it was new to you
waking up left alone
but I’ve felt it every morning
and I look forward to it again
it’s one thing I can count on
you know, now that you’re gone
--
just wanted something easy
quick glance and smile and nod
move on and get a new life
try riding around the globe
try returning home
after a year of not being here
wonder who I’ll become
with no one to call and confide in
back to seclusion and confusion
back to ignorant little sean
unknowing un-showing and unfair
I stare
I stutter
I stammer and I move on
because no one wants a little man
who walks around with one thought in his head
I want a woman in my bed
I want a bed with a woman in it
I want something to lay down with
to sleep and be happy
I want to be sound asleep
in a bed with someone next to me
but I know what will happen
they’ll fidget every few seconds
my eyes will fly open
I’m too light a sleeper to sleep with someone else
their silence would keep me up all night
