You’re Gone

Now that you’re gone
And I’m on my own
Now that you’re gone
And I’m all alone
You’re gone
You’re gone The future plans we made
Gone and lost in time’s fade
You’re gone, surprised how I feel
You’re gone — a relief lifted, a new reveal Pictures of you in my mind gone to gray
Starting to blur and stray
Can’t remember the soft feel of your hand
Departure from the plan You’re gone
The rooms still hold your shape
You’re gone
The beds former memory escapes 
Haze where the promise used to sit
You’re gone Wondering what it was about
Now that our love’s gone blue
Was I ever in love with you?
Did I just make love to you instead? The sheets still cool on your side of the bed
A moth keeps hitting the dead bulb overhead Can’t get burned from what ain’t lit anymore 
I let it go — I don’t even miss her I walk the hallway after midnight
Every door is only a door
Your dress still hanging like it means something
I leave it there, I don’t need more
The photograph curls at the corners
Ink running where the names used to be
The body remembered the heat
The mind is already free
Tide went out and left the stones
You’re gone Now that you’re gone
And I’m on my own
The house is quiet
The future’s my own
You’re gone
You’re gone
The light goes out
The record ends
You’re gone
