It’s only for a short time and I’ll be home again soon.

My ear drum has been stabbed,

I have fourty five minutes to leave,

I hate waking up when it’s dark,

Five more minutes,

I can’t lay back down,

Why do I do this to myself.

It’s only for a short time and I’ll be home again soon.

Where’s my watch?

That Cold shower was awful but would’ve impressed any CEO, Shame I wouldn’t tell them that it was because the boiler is on the blink,

Do I have time to finish my coffee,

I think that’s everything,

Better say goodbye but I’ll try not to wake her.

It’s only for a short time and I’ll be home again soon.

The platform feels lonelier than usual,

I should’ve warn my big coat,

That squashed, battered football brings back memories,

Curby between platforms would be brilliant,

06:03,

Why is it okay for them to have a delayed start the day?

It’s only for a short time and I’ll be home again soon.

These seats are filthy,

I think. Yep. That’s chewing gum on my wheels.

The lights are so bright it feels like a police interview,

Growing up is a con,

That coffee hasn’t made a difference,

It could be worse mind you,

Time to repeatedly check my email, calendar and booking confirmations.

It’s only for a short time and I’ll be home again soon.
