when you left me behind and walked away
wanting to not feel left all alone
that was a while ago
I have picked up your habit since
like I have picked up your habit since I met you
I live for those random events in the universe
akin to seeing a star exploding into a supernova
when you reach out to me
that was a while ago too
I have picked up my pieces since
like I am picked on by your absence
It has been almost a full day since we spoke
and the day passes like a camel through a needle's eye
when these moments are spent in wait
that was a while ago
I have picked at my existence since
like I am picked to be broken by time
I hunger to be held in your arms love and seen
and my eyes see the distance and feel blind
when I don't see you holding my hand
that was a while ago
I have picked at my heart for a reason to smile
like I am picked to be woefully lost.
