Birthday Boy Countdown

Another One

By Janet ThenyPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

One is out for fun

Out for a good time

Thinking about your own self

But maybe a series of ones

Turns out hollow

Je m'en fou you say je m'en fou

But you do care, don't you? - You do

Look, one is serious

This is no joking matter

One makes you think

Oh it's just me

Here on my own

But you are never alone
