the empty halls

the look on your face
searching for someone
new and fresh in the
empty empty halls

while i am here
talking to you
you scan for someone
better than i

i laugh as the ghost of
our friendships past glide
through my memories of the
empty empty halls

and i whisper to the air
that it was never a
real tangible thing
and you are gone

i watch as your back
turns when you find another
more advanced species in the
empty empty halls

i turn around and follow
my instinct and leave
you behind with
the artificial girls

and i glide by myself
a bit wiser and
safer through the
empty empty halls
