Seeing Her Again

One day you two will meet again. She'll be wearing a dress that you never got to see, high heels and the lipstick that you never really liked, but now it's the most beautiful color you've ever seen.

Her nails will be painted your favorite color, her hair will be in curls down to her waist, and she will smell like your favorite of her perfumes.

You will hear her voice, and it will take you back. You'll remember all of the I love you's that she said and the prayers that she prayed.

You'll see her smile. You'll remember how happy she made you and you'll remember what it felt like when her lips touched yours so gently, but so passionately and how sweet she tasted.

You'll look into her eyes and you'll remember all the tears, all the apologies, all the I miss you's.

You'll remember they way it felt to leave her, to lose her, and it'll sting but only for a second because you moved on a long time ago, but you'll wonder, oh you'll wonder, you'll wonder why you ever walked away from a woman like her.
