Thursday morning coffee
My days have been lonely since you were gone
I order starbucks for two now
The second pillow on my bed has no use
Other than to fill my chest some nights
Somedays I stick my head out the window
And see as if it was you walking down the slope
Waving and smiling at me while laughing
And they say time is the cure
But my time runs slow
As I look at the sheets of paper around me
With the poems I have given you
I see how happy I was
Writing for someone, somehow
As i take a sip of my Thursday morning coffee
I find myself missing you
As I take the bus ride to work
I find myself in the blinding lights of your shadow
I lose my grip and my balance
The future plans we have made
Are just fairy tales now
Ever since the day you wanted to meet new bodies
I have been losing my own more and more
When im on fire up on all fronts
I find my chest full of bullet holes
With no one to share
With no one to tell me
That one day
Ill be okay
