The Morning After

The morning after I wake up to my pillows talking to me Your are gone but they say you were here You left some time in the night after I said you couldn't stay Even after all that excitement you caused with the little you brought There wasn't anything your body could do to impress me Make me want to change my nature to believe in more than my stripes And these spots that have kept me sheltered and unharmed by love Because love is just some female constantly barking at everyone to be noticed Searching for gentle and caring hands to bite later So you took a kiss and your clothes while I pushed you out my door Imagine my surprise when I still didn't wake up alone There is this feeling here holding me now I can't help but think you left it A revenge of some sort to combat my cool head, cold shoulders, and icy heart And that makes me want to hate you Who are you to come and try to change who I am in one night You should have simply just left a note if you really had to have a say Even I would have been less offended if you left cash on my nightstand Just so our one night stand won't still stand in my room Its staring me down as if I was caught with my hands in forbidden places With someone who isn't suppose to be here But there is still something here that isn't suppose to be here It is the morning after Well passed our mutual time of sharing You took and I took You gave and I gave And I only rose above you after I spent time at your feet It was a fair night I don't think I deserve to wake up with leftovers sleeping over Lounging in my bed stealing my sleep before my sanity Because I didn't ask for any reminders Somehow they have found themselves here infringing on my time Loitering and littering my space with your impressions I refused to acknowledge once Inspecting all the marks in the light of day won't allow me to do it twice If only there were just pillowcases and sheets I needed to wash Hickies and scratches on my skin I needed to hide So I can fully convince myself you were never here The morning after
