In a corner

I can have a fling with a really good book
and spend the evening with a glass of wine
But sometimes I need to hear someone
tell me that its going to be fine...

Coffee alone is an acquired taste
that few can appreciate
But plans of coffee with faraway friends
I never hesitate to make

I see a movie that makes me feel alone
and readily break down in tears
But all it takes is the ring of a phone
and familiar voice to bring cheers

Rainfall is fun for the first two hours
But heavy on my heart at night
so I toss and turn and wonder when
there'll be someone else to switch off the light

Its a cruel bet for a modern day poet
who knows exactly what to rhyme
that lost in a corner in a world full of strangers
there someone who is just mine
