Where Are You
I can't stand to cut my hair,
Because it's the same hair you played with
When you were still here.
I look for pieces of you everywhere
Despite myself.
I can't smell you on my pillow anymore.
I can't stand having nothing to remember you by.
I already lost you;
I can't lose all the little things you left me.
The nail polish I painted
The day before you died
Is chipping
And almost gone.
