I remember a life before you. Feeling joy. Experiencing pain. Feelings happiness upon my fingertips in my hair and on my tongue. I remember a life before you. Friends I cherished. A past behind me. A dream spread out in front of me just inches from my grasp. I remember a life before you. Always searching. Looking ceaselessly. Always hoping a person like you would walk into my life. I remember a life before you. Feeling full. Looking inward. Trying to figure myself out through good choices and some wrong. But then you came. And I erased the before, the middle, and the after. But then you came. And I never imagined there'd be a "just me" again. But then you came. Colors brighter, songs more beautiful, the world more vibrant. But then you came. And then you left.
