Birthday Party
October 26, 2015
Party hat resting on my head
A faint smile touching my lips
The lights are dimmed
A birthday cake sits on front of me
With 16 candles flickering
Their light, lengthy shadows on the walls
A box of chocolate, and flowers
Movie's already in the DVD player
With blankets stuffing the couch
I draw a long breath
And blow all the candles of my cake
And make a wish
"I wish someone was here
To make this my first happy birthday"
Flowers I had picked and chocolate bought
And the cake read...
"Happy Birthday to me"
