Now revealed for what they are
They’re just taking space.

Just take me away.

Looked forward to seeing you
Two minutes too late.

My heart is heavy
Every day you’re in my thoughts,
It’s hard to let go.

Always taking the same road
Veer off now and then.

Look for the dimple;
Focus on the pleasant smile
Ignore the pimple.
