I passed your house on the way home yesterday, and I saw her silhouette on the bedroom wall.

1

The song you used to sing to me came on, and I had to change it before more memories raced through my body.

2

You sat beside me, but you didn't rub my thigh like you did before.

3

She said I make everything about me, the words sounded familiar.

4

Last night, I had a dream you kissed me. I woke back up.

5

It was 11:11 when I looked at the clock. You were laying beside the one you've wished for.

6

I called myself a hurricane, but you weren't there to remind me that you love storms.

7

You like long hair. I cut mine shoulder length.

8

The galaxies you said were in my eyes are faded. I can't seem to find them.

9

My hand touched her. I was told to get off like you ordered me to do.

10

The soap in the bathroom smelt like your shampoo.

 

-10 pills I swallowed to get you off my mind
