I don't know,
I suppose I could eat.
But
that would just leave me wondering
if I really wanted you
Which, I do.
I do.
I really do.
I suppose I could sing,
but
my voice would shatter
And it would leave me wondering
if I have any tallent
I suppose I could smile,
but
that would just convince myself that everything's
just peachy
And I don't want to lie.
Not to myself, at any rate.
I could erase everyone from my mind
except you
I wish that I could answer my question
"Why?"
But
That would just leave me feeling vacuous
and empty.
