it is absolutely no fun being whole

it is absolutely no fun being whole
being that the whole time i was sitting here
at my desk absolutely nothing happened
except shadows receding along the sidewalk

silence

i said 'it sounds exactly like love'
sounds like a song that sounds like a song i used to know
it's sadder when you're alone
even when you're whole

it is absolutely no fun being whole
being that the whole time i was sitting here
i was waiting but for nothing to arrive
just waiting

....

i said 'it feels exactly like love'
an embrace glued to your skin
i shed it off, lie skinless while i wait
and think about the love we didn't make

i said 'it tastes exactly like love'
tasteless
empty
waiting
etc.

no fun being whole
no fun being broken, either
no fun, no fun at all
