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.
