Filler

Sorry I’ll be late
I say
I’ve been hurt too many times
To arrive on time

And the whole time
I wish he was you

Such a soft feeling
Love isn’t it
How it creeps in
How it sets in
How you don’t realize it
Until your 9 months in

I think about you all the way home
And then all the way there
To touch you twice

And I wish you were here
With me
On my balcony
Smoking
which you only do with me

Do friends look at each other like this

I let his text go unanswered
And I don’t feel bad
Walking home alone
Life I think
Is mostly walking home alone

You never want to know who I’m dating
You never want to know who I’m with
And neither do I
And I say you can’t do better
Then the girl you have
But
I wish I could lean close

Don’t tell me you miss uni
Say you miss me

Miss me miss me miss me

And what I wanted to say at dinner was
Do you remember that night in the bar when we shared a cigarette and held hands for a brief second
I realized then that I loved you
Everything else is filler

Everything else is filler.
