I used to think you were those hot days when I'd sit out in the yard with iced coffee and a book or music; that you were the conversations we had about you sitting under a tree and reading on the same afternoons
I used to believe that you were the rainy mornings
Without much to do
Paint , windows , customers few between
Rivulets on the windows bagels and earl grey tea
I used to those cool July
Evenings and walking along the water
Ice cream and fudge learning and talking in the air
Were made up only of you
And I used to tell myself that I could think of you on snowy evenings
That I could wonder where you were when I looked at the moon
I used to think that all these things were made up of you
That you made all these experiences
That I couldn't feel a same breeze or hear a same song
Or yearn a familiar connection
Without knowing it was in my mind only because of you
I used to think books and dreams
Lyrics sitting under trees
One day one June
Iced coffee and free
Paint and windows
Rain and earl grey tea
Were made up of you
But turns out you were never really there
Or maybe we never could be friends
One day I finally believed you were gone
And life still breathed and hurts has sand and summer nights
With notebooks and songs
Summer and moonlight
And I thought they could come only with you
But turns out they were made up by me.
