Empty Again
9 years ago
Sitting here, all to myself
No one around, as far as I can tell.
Friends have paid, tipped, and gone
Empty again, but not empty for long.
Other patrons come and go,
Most don't bother saying hello
Maybe their drinks I should have bought
Empty again, left alone with my thoughts.
Maybe I said something wrong tonight,
What if I didn't notice their glaring sight
Some kind of wrongdoing I should have caught
Empty again, it was probably my fault.
It wouldn't be the first time it's gone that way
To make their judgement about me sway
Yet I still sit here, doing the same old thing
Empty again, hoping my phone'll ring.
The old ones always say the same
They know how it goes, and just how to tame
I feel that there has been more I've wronged yet
Empty again, I can't seem to forget.
The new ones I don't exactly know
Because I'm afraid they'll catch on to how it goes
And when they do, it'll be just the same
Empty again, add more to my shame.
And yes, I know it'll be full once more
The laughs, the stories, the fun immature.
But deep in my heart, I know it too plain
It'll be deserted and empty, I'll do it again...
Sorry for my shitty attempt at poetry. Don't mind it, just venting.
