It's a cold night,
And I m listening to a song
About a guy falling in love
With everything
She is embarrassed to show.
They both fall in love
And kiss on first day of the snow.
I cover myself with my cardigan
And lay my head on my notebook
As I sigh at the love life of a fictional couple.
In the dramas and the stories
The guy falls in love while watching her fall asleep
In real life we do call them a creep.
When I fall asleep while standing on the moving bus,
I wake up when my face hits the rod.
Because life isn't a kdrama
With disappointment I nod.
You see it's not always the case that the cute guy is taken.
He didn't notice you falling asleep
Or didn't put a palm on your forehead
To prevent you from getting injured.
He might have been busy laughing
No, not at you
But at the memes that keeps his eyes
Glued to the screen.
So love at first swipe has taken over
Falling for simple things.
