save me { poems }

too late?

i made a promise to myself, a long time vow
i'd like to introduce my self, if you would allow
i will start by brushing my hair with a slight bow
to the girl who's standing in front of me now

she smiled at me, her crescent-shaped eyes
she asked "you didnt tell me sooner, may i know why?"
maybe because of my existence, a mere passerby
then she looked at the clock and said "my boyfriend is waiting for me. gotta go, bye"

why do i find this so funny?
