She's not here
I'm OK
I've got my writing
I'm a busy ol' fool
She's got her thing
her life is full
I'm not there, but
she's cool
We sometimes pass
like ships at sea
signal, subtle
and silent
We seldom swerve
or, intrude
no regimen,
no compliance
She's not here
but, I'm OK
'cause she's OK
with it too
All is well
and, all is well
just knowing
she's in the next room
I'm OK
I've got my writing
I'm a busy ol' fool
She's got her thing
her life is full
I'm not there, but
she's cool
We sometimes pass
like ships at sea
signal, subtle
and silent
We seldom swerve
or, intrude
no regimen,
no compliance
She's not here
but, I'm OK
'cause she's OK
with it too
All is well
and, all is well
just knowing
she's in the next room
