Maybe I tried
to recreate those memories.
Maybe I did saunter down
the same street to the same building
with the same crude, concrete ceilings hovering above my head.
Maybe my food was the same,
maybe I held the same drink,
and just maybe I saw many of the same
people that we had before.
Maybe I did try to relive
romanticized moments without you
within the same places that we once shared.
But maybe this time
the feeling just wasn't the same.
Maybe without you I was finally able to feel so much more.
