Why.

Tell me why,
empty passages
are not so empty
with just one extra person.

Tell me why,
lonely tunnels
are not so scary
with just one extra person.

Tell me why,
sad nights
are not so uncomfortable
with just one extra person.

Tell me why,
the milestones
are not so far apart
with just one extra person.

Tell me why,
those pictures
are not so absurd
With just one extra person.

Tell me why,
none of us
still feels like ,
that one extra person,
despite being so.
