I am very lonely,

I let the floor hold me, 

Let the records talk to me,

The house keeps me warm,

I let the mirror see me.

Plainly, for who I am, 

In ways even I have yet to grasp.

I let my existence distract me,

From the life I have not lived,

From the time wasted, 

From the what-ifs. 

I let myself go, 

Because there is no reason to 

stay.
