Traces

After you left

It kinda felt like someone died

Empty apartment

Nobody in the bed your side

Major withdrawals

From holding onto you so tight

10 months, I think

Nothing ever felt quite right

Funny how the space you occupy

Gets a little smaller in my mind

All I got is pieces left behind

Used to be the love of my life

Inside jokes no one gets

Sweater that smells like your scent

Little things can’t forget

Traces of you all that’s left

Your brand of cigarette

Hair your shade of dark brunette

Little things can’t forget

Traces of you all that’s left

Pictures stuffed in

Drawers I haven’t tried to clean

Faces fading

And your friends that I no longer see

Funny how the space you occupy

Gets a little smaller in my mind

All I got is pieces left behind

Used to be the love of my life

Inside jokes no one gets

Sweater that smells like your scent

Little things can’t forget

Traces of you all that’s left

Your brand of cigarette

Hair your shade of dark brunette

Little things can’t forget

Traces of you all that’s left

An inside joke that no one gets

Recipes I can’t forget

A couch that smells just like your scent

And a mutual friend

With your accent
