whiskey and you

whiskey........whiskey.
and guitar, and sad songs,
and anyone who's not afraid
to be alone with me
i want these as i think of you,
i want to want all these
not because i want you,
but because i just want
to live the day before
i met you; i shush my mind
to a corner of my pillow,
and abandon my bed, the room
it makes me think of you,
i still think of you a lot,
you are somewhere thinking
about me when i think of you,
when i think of you.....you.

I wonder if we don't all experience similar situations. I was once deeply in love with a girl. It lasted about two years before quietly suffering a semi painless death. I often find myself listening to a song and wonder, what was she doing when this song was popular...who was she with? It's strange how the mind and emotions work. I don't understand any of it.
