Today Has Been Too Long

It's ridiculous, I know, but I looked for you all day.
I knew you weren't there, but I still expected every footstep to be yours, every door opened to be opened by you, every way I turned to see you there.
I even looked for your car.
Not that I needed to, I saw it this morning,
It wasn't you driving, though.
