What we had

And there I am
Sitting in my bed
Looking at my phone
At what we had
I look at the pictures you sent me
The ones where you look sleepy
And the ones that you sent me so I could freak out
I mean the ones where you stand in your towel in front of the mirror
And the one you took after your haircut
And all those other ones

I look at the messages we wrote
I look at them and think
about what went wrong
About when it went wrong
Was I the mistake?
Was it you?
Or just the situation?
Right person wrong place?

Then I start crying.
I miss you.
I miss what we had.
I miss all that we could've been but never were.

And there I am
Sitting in my bed
Looking at what we had
And thinking about what I could've done differently
