AS USUAL

AS USUAL

I get up
I shake you up
You do not wake up
As usual .
I cover you with the sheet
So that you don’t catch a cold
As usual .
My hand caresses your hair
Almost despite myself
As usual.
But you
You turn your back on me
As usual .

And I dress very quickly
I leave the room
As usual .
All alone I drink my coffee
I'm late
As usual
I quietly leave the house
Everything is gray outside
As usual .
I'm cold
I raise my collar
As usual .

As usual
All day
I play a make-believe life
As usual.
I smile
As usual .
I even laugh
As usual.
I live the day
As usual .

And then
The day is over
I return
As usual
To You
You are out still
Not yet returned home
As usual .
All alone
I go to bed
In this cold
As usual .
My tears
I hide them
As usual.

As usual
Even at night
I'll play a make-believe
As usual .
You get back
As usual
I wait for you in bed
As usual
You smile at me
As usual.

As usual
You undress
As usual
You get into bed
As usual
We kiss
As usual .

As usual,
We will pretend
To be making love
You will pretend
As usual,
To be enjoying.
We will go to sleep
As usual.
