I called you up yesterday

I sat by the phone,

thinking of what not to say.

You weren't even there,

So I had dinner alone.

The recipe was an old one,

I didn't follow it closely.

I set dinner for one,

As if I were someone else,

As if someone else were cooking

For some one person

Whom he wanted to impress.

The idea seems strange now,

But I had a really good time.
