Quiet

Everything is so quiet in my dorm tonight.

My suitemates are gone, and I can breathe again

Quietly, deeply, in and out.

So peaceful, yet so alone.

Checking those away messages for the one thousandth time.

I just want someone to talk to

And remind me why I'm here.

I want to cuddle up on the couch and breathe in unison with someone,

Quiety, deeply, in and out.

We would be so peaceful, and so alone.

Only we'd be alone together.

I wouldn't have to check away messages,

I wouldn't have to feel separated from society.

I'd have that someone special.

Who would look foward to my call,

And tell me I'd never be alone again.

I can see it now,

We're on the phone.

Talking and breathing,

Quietly, deeply, in and out.

And I'd never be alone on a Friday night again.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Another quiet Friday night alone.
