Today

A Poem by Naomi Bloom
"

Love song lyrics about a guy from work.

"
Today is my last day 
I am having energy drinks 
I am giving them hope 
No one will see this 
Who would know where I stole this snippet from? 
Very vague 
But I don't care 
I have to write this poem 
I don't know if it's a song yet 

I stared blankly at the screen 
for a couple minutes 
What the hell does he mean? 
Is it the last day... forever? 
But maybe it's the last day 
and then he has a big vacation 
recovers from that back injury 

Today is my last day 
I am having energy drinks 
I am giving them hope 
Drugged up like 
Hunter S. Thompson
How could you understand me? 

But that woman said she missed working with him 
Does that mean he's gone? 
Does that mean he's leaving? 
Leaving me? 
How could he? 
My heart is crumbling 
I wish this was a bad dream 

I used to long for Today 
Today is the last day 
I am having energy drinks 
I am giving them hope 
I'm sure it has nothing 
nothing, nothing to do with me 

Feeling hollow inside 
I have to stop caring 
about that nerd 
with hidden depths 
hidden depths 
he's a puzzle 
I'll never finish 
never finish 

Today is my last day 
I am having energy drinks 
I am giving them hope 
When there is none 
And I'll miss you (you don't miss me) 
I'll miss you (you can't miss me) 
I'll miss you (you never kissed me) 
I missed you (you never missed me) 
I guess I missed you 
You never missed me 
You never missed me 
Have a good one

True. Thanks for the review.
You made the correction, hence so did I. I'm sitting here thinking... I don't hear your music inside but I feel the edge and can place a voice.
