It was like holding everything I'd been seeking,
It was like having a lost part of me asleep on the pillow
It was like a million lost dreams coalesced into the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen
It was like nothing I had ever dreamed
It was like nothing had ever gone wrong
It was like some gift, given by an uncaring universe, just to make sure I was ok
It was like I had never been awake, and every cognition was sleeping next to me
It was like I had never even known what beauty was
It was like a conspiracy of everything I never deserved
It was like watching everything I ever wanted walk away
It was like losing things I never knew I wanted
It was like pretending you were with me now
It was like forgetting your smell
It was like wishing I knew you...
