Saw a reflection of myself
without you,
and I couldn’t help but look back.
Saw you smiling
trying,
But, it’s not the same.
Your smile,
your laugh
it will never be the same.
I’ll never forget
the night
the fight and
the right words to make us pretend it never happened.
Naked,
drunk,
sloppy.
I’m not sure why but I miss you,
and tomorrow when you wake up I'm sure I’ll dismiss you,
but now, only now, I wish it could be,
the same way that it used to be.
