I've been here so long
In this stall at Walmart,
Crying, trying to be alone,
I forgot 
I have things in my cart.
I still have to pay.

So still, so quietly I sob,
The motion sensors do not detect me,
And now the automatic lights turn off,
Leaving me all by myself
In the pitch black bathroom.

And if I try to find my heart
Or the door,

It will be only by sheer luck.
