David DeSantis - ..I think I need a girlfriend

why,
can't I be happy?

I wasn't last night,

I wasn't a dream,

I wasn't random
or fearless

and I certainly wasn't
pride.

No I was me,

lost
in a crowded room.

So droll
so damp,
and faded.

He smiled,
and she hugged him

You smiled

and they all saw right through it.
