I'm pathetic enough / thoughts of a teacher

When I was young,
O, in the hallways, the music played.
I was so sad. I thought,
'This is what love must be like
when I grow older or meet someone older.'
I'm pathetic enough,
but you sleep in my bed, nonetheless.
I'm still dreaming on.
I'm the joke of the world,
but I don't mind.
Do you see how I feel?
How do I tell you?
All that I want are the dreams behind infant eyes.
When I was young,
I used to daydream about the things and people
that'd come and go.
I was so sad. I thought, '
