Table For One

She's all alone

It's Thursday night

She's eating with a candle light

 

A glass of wine or maybe three

To help to drown her company

 

The noise around is all a blur

Everyone's laughter seems to stir

 

As people pass they all will stare

She noticed, and hoped that one would care

 

No love for work

No self-esteem

 

No one to love

Nothing to dream

 

She's had enough

It's all the same

Not another day of this stupid game

 

Her shopping bag is fully packed

No thoughts for action, the plan is exact

 

With one last toast she'll kiss goodbye

Her loneliness and the beauty of its lie
