Overdue from Objet a by Old Girl

I set the stage up
for you to sing
I lined the bells up
for us to ring
I put my cape on
and lit the torch
descended the dark tunnel of love
with you

as if you belonged here
so overdue
and we could finally celebrate your arrival
with the clouds as our witnesses
I poured the wine
emptied my cup for you

now you assign me
to stop
and drain out my longing
turn my heart from delusion
back to reality,
its so sobering

the sky is grey, its very true
and I'm embracing the great divide
between us
as memories fade we understand
the absurdity of our desires

I'm glad you shut up
and pulled the plug!
you sweet, sad cynical lover
we are two seeds
in a pod who cannot grow next to each other
