It Must Have Been When I Was Looking At Your Picture...

October 19, 2011





It must have been when I was looking at your picture,


That I realized my mistake.


Because that's when the water spot appeared on the picture


And I knew it was too late.





Why do I have to realize I'm wrong when it's too late?


Because now it is just that.


Knowing that I should have said something else at the time


Makes me even more sad.





I said you'd be here always so I didn't have to be


Nice to you quite yet.


I didn't realize that someday you would actually leave


Until you had already left.





So now the blue sky above reminds me that one day


We could share it, but now we wont.


The rain will fall on me though it didn't used to,


Cuz you have the umbrella and I don't.





When I share my fries I can't complain that you like ketchup


Because I'm sharing with myself.


The world seems so much bigger because you are not here


To hide the sun; I'm by myself.





Wherever you are you wont be here where I am anymore.


At night I can't here you snore.


When I clean only I am pretending to sing.


Only I jump at the sound of the toast.





I wish I hadn't said you would never leave


Because now you are gone and I don't know what to do with myself


Because everything that I used to do,


You were doing it with me, too.
