Mona

I never really let it go

Sometimes it feels like you’re at home

We just haven’t talked in a while

It was strange, your leftovers on the day you left

I started smoking just to catch your scent

Turned away when they took you out

Couldn’t bear the thought of you under that sheet

When you were just with me

And I miss you

I’ve been figuring out how to say it out loud and keep my eyes dry as drought

I wish you knew all the things I never said

And how I look for you in butterflies, they’re signs you’re not dead

So if you’re listening, I miss you

Dad picked the stone while I spent the year stoned

And I hate that I don’t think of you more

Got my degree and I fell in love

Kris got tall and I write songs I wish you could hear if you were still with me

And I miss you

I’ve been figuring out how to say it out loud and keep my eyes dry as drought

I wish you knew all the things I never said

And how I look for you in butterflies, they’re signs you’re not dead

So if you’re listening

(If you’re listening)

So if you’re listening

(I know you’re listening)

I miss you
