I saw an apple core, half eaten,
Thrown down in the dirt
I saw a coffee cup without a lid
And somebody’s torn shirt
I saw cracks in the sidewalk
That spelled out your name
And I asked myself
Am I to blame?
All these forgotten things
That people have left behind
Do they remember them
The way I remember mine?
Do they feel the space they’ve made
When they try to find
All these forgotten things
That they’ve left behind?
I saw a dog with three legs
And a cat with just one eye
I saw a man leave a house
He did not wave goodbye
I heard a train whistle blowing
That sounded like your name
And I told myself
I am to blame
I saw the house we used to live in
The windows broken and black
The glass on the grass below
Like the tears I can’t put back
I only want to start over
So I start with your name
On my lips with “I” and “love”
And nothing of blame
