Use Somebody

i can't blame people for fallbacks
you surely would not put all your eggs in one basket
or even trade all your cards with all the aces
without the safety net
human nature is calculating, shrewd, selfish
nobody loves a loser
you don't get replaced
but you should always have a ready replacement
you don't leave an old lover
over someone you can't even put your fingers on.

i had plans in my head even 5 years back
i contracted all my closest friends
on what to do next, the day before and the night after
i screamed, down the bottles!
fuck the weed!
i wish to wake up 2015
just the ripe age after "life begins".

here's what happened instead ...
i went straight home
slept just a little late
woke up early
spent the entire day with my two surgeons
gone shopping into two different places
prettified my house.

A day after ...
i knew exactly
so now, here ..
like you
I never did
give up
my fallback.

I do like you do
Everybody needs one.
