Pieces of You
By Me

Scent of you on my skin
As I slept and breathed it in
I almost mistook that your arms were around me.
But it wasn't really the scent of you
but my soap--your soap--the soap you used.
Just a lingering wisp of scent
And a lingering wisp of memory
And in my sleep I could think it was you.
You show up in many of my dreams
Always needing a favor from me
But I can never tell if you're in love with me or just using me
I guess that's like real life
Except I only see you in my dreams.
Stupid sleep, who needs it?
I would stay up all night given the chance
To no longer be haunted by you.
Sometimes I roll over in bed,
See the picture frame I kept you in
Three long years your face was there
The picture is now gone
But the fram still stands.
The empty heart-shaped frame
Represents my own heart
And as I still stand without you
I feel empty and strange.
