Dancing reminds me of you,
Because that’s how free I felt when I was with you.

The stars remind me of you,
Because that’s how brightly your eyes used to shine.

Summer reminds me of you,
Because that’s how warm your heart was.
If only you let anyone see.

Thunderstorms remind me of you,
Because that’s how it felt when you cried.

My brother reminds me of you,
Because he left me,
Just like you.

Libraries remind me of you,
Because you had more untold stories than them.

Sleep reminds me of you,
Because that was the only time you seemed truly okay.

Roses remind me of you,
Because they are as red as the blood that dripped from your arms.

Guns remind me of you,
Because I had to wrestle one out of your hands.

Notes remind me of you,
Because that’s all you left for me.

Shattered glass reminds me of you,
Because you were broken,
And you left me broken too.
