Z) After you had gone

After you had gone

After you had gone
I sat in the car
And tried to remember your face,
But I couldn't picture it, picture you -
You took every bit of you with you to the train
And gave me nothing,
Not even a faded memory photograph
In my brain,
Not even a trace
Of the taste of your lips,
Not even
The remembered feeling
Of that kiss,
Only a warm glow
And an emptiness,
You'd been gone a minute
And I missed you already.
