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.
