Day 356: Old habits die hard

I still have your bike hanging up in the garage
Even though you never used it

I still have that rug in the living room
Even though I never liked it


I still drink my wine out of plastic cups
Since you said I broke too many of the glass ones

I still make sure I don't leave my socks lying around the house
Because you thought it was so disgusting

I still stay quiet in the morning
Because I never wanted to wake you


I still collect all your mail
And store it in a box in case you need it

I parked on my side of the driveway
A full 6 months after you went away

And I still sleep on my side of the bed
In case I wake up and find you never left.
