I wrote this one in May 1992 - pretty sure I wrote this after I got dumped! Luckily it's a long time ago and so fortunately with my spectacularly poor memory I can't quite remember who it was... haha

i turn the music off, and listen to the sounds of summer for a little while.

there's a world out there carrying on without me...

friends float by on little feathery clouds of happiness

while i'm knotted in place

emotions are concrete platelets weighing down a tired heart

i sink into an ocean of sadness - why try to fight it?

no use for living, 

except to prove to myself, if no-one else

that i don't need YOU 

to fill this empty place with happiness

you thought at least i'd cry

but nobody gets the satisfaction anymore if i can help it

it's too much like admitting i care

and you don't.
