Today is different

I can’t touch you

I can’t pray with you

I can’t feel you

I can’t be with you

 

Today is Tuesday

I can’t lie to you

I can’t see you

I can’t even love you

 

Today is Wednesday

I can’t find you

I can’t look at you

I can’t smile at you

 

Today is Thursday

I can’t sit next to you

I can’t stand in the park with you

I can’t eat with you

 

Today is Friday

I can’t do anything with you

Because I’m not here anymore
