Saturday Night Secret

It's Saturday Night again, the night I spend socially though
alone with thoughts of you. I've never been one for pop psychology,
but I'm hoping this movie, The Secret, about the law of attraction
turns out to be onto something. According to this silly movie,
our thoughts attract reality, which I hope is true, because when
I think of us together, this is what I picture:

Nothing romantic or passionate, I can clearly see us standing
side by side, just happy to be together. You have a smile on
your face, a big one, and we're facing the world together.
And you, who always seem alone to me in the photos I see
of you with other people, you are no longer alone.
