I wasn’t looking for what I found
Obviously, since what I found was you.
Upon entering this new round
I came into a better place, a better time.
After you, the vapors still lingered in the blankets.
After you, the taste still lingered in my mouth.
When the sky fell dark
And I looked over at you
I found all the light I ever needed
To keep the straight path in view.
I wasn’t looking for what I found
But once I saw my good luck
There came realizations that it was exactly what I needed
... And that nobody else gave a fuck.
After you, the perfumes lost their scents.
After you, the lip gloss lost its flavor.
When the sky fell dark
And I had nothing left
I realized you really had left a mark
Nothing else seems as good -
Looking forward to meeting the next you,
I can’t stop wondering where we went wrong
And how we can stop it from happening again.
Funny how questions are all that’s left -
After you.
