I Think That There Is Someone Upstairs

I think that there is

Someone upstairs

Because little things go missing

And furniture gets moved

I think that there is

Someone upstairs

Sounds that I can’t recognize

Interrupt my reading

I think that there is

Someone upstairs

Cigarette butts in an ashtray

When I have long quit smoking

I think that there is

Someone upstairs

Familiar dinner dishes

Never taste the same

I think that there is

Someone upstairs

It’s not only myself

Who has trouble moving forward

I think that there is

Someone upstairs

Little things go missing

And people disappear.
