I never found anyone as good as you.

I never found anyone as good as you.
And I believe I tried.
Everytime I passed a woman in a bar,
that looked a little like you....
I hid in the bathroom.
I never found anyone as good as you.
When the bracelet you gave me broke,
I tied it around my wrist tight and permanent.
Like all the missed coffee dates we ever had.
And stolen kisses you turned away from.
I never found anyone as good as you.
At...longing or bringing me fruit.
The size six and a half shoe-prints you left
in my livingroom are too big to fill.
With anything.
I've sat beside them stuffing in
regret, acceptance, and angry collages.
Sometimes I think you can feel me,
trying to sort you out from here.
All the beer and late-night pool games
show up on a cosmic scoreboard.
We both know the score.
You knew the way it would play out
before we began to look, blush, and look away.
You knew that I was born just a little too late.
