everywhere I turn, I find reminders of you.
The fingerprints remain on your dirty glass;
the circular rings hypnotize and harass.
The blue fuzz from your socks lingers on the floor;
so many reminders of you that I can't ignore.
Sentimentality forces me to leave everything in its place;
these reminders of you cannot be erased.
The toothpaste goo sticks to the sink like glue;
it glues together memories of you.

I cannot bear to rinse away your toothpaste residue;
everywhere I turn, I find reminders of you.
The fingerprints remain on your dirty glass;
the circular rings hypnotize and harass.
The blue fuzz from your socks lingers on the floor;
so many reminders of you that I can't ignore.
Sentimentality forces me to leave everything in its place;
these reminders of you cannot be erased.
The toothpaste goo sticks to the sink like glue;
it glues together memories of you.
