Right Now

Right now,
You're all I want;
You're all I need.
You're pretty much the air I breathe.

Right now,
I don't think I can let you go;
I don't think I can say goodbye.
I just can't stand to sit and cry.

Right now,
I feel like I'm being torn;
I feel like I can't win this game.
I feel like I'm the one to blame.

So right now,
You're all I want;
You're all I need.
You're pretty much the air I breathe.

the internet is
off; the little fan-shaped
symbol
has faded to dead gray.
I tried to post and
Firefox spun its

for too long
before telling me
“sever not found.”
Goodnight, then;
The goodnight I won’t be able to say until
tomorrow morning.
Sorry I had to
leave.
