Let's Talk About Something Else

I've seen the good times,
but now all of them are
blurs in the past.
"I wonder what it'd be like
if they didn't hate each other."
"Ah, but the thing is, darling,
that this would never happen.
He, a selfish, obnoxious jerk.
She, sometimes too inebriated to
know what's happening.
That mixed with 26 years of
blind hatred--"
"Oh boy, you should have
known that it wouldn't end well."

Ad now, stuck all alone
in a crowded room, with
only my suicidal thoughts...
Well, this isn't good.
"Just stop, relax,
tell yourself it'll be all right."
"And if it isn't?"
"Well then at least you know,
that if anything should happen,
I'll be right by your side to
make it all better."
