A Cancer Called Love

I used to make long speeches to you after you left
I used to talk to you all the time, even though I was alone
I walked around for months talking to you
Now I don't know what to say
It was easier when I just imagined you
I even imagined you talking back to me
We'd have long conversations, the two of us
lt was almost like you were there
I could hear you, I could see you, smell you
I could hear your voice. Sometimes your voice would wake me up
It would wake me up in the middle of the night, just like you were in the room with me
Then it slowly faded
I couldn't picture you anymore
I tried to talk out loud to you like I used to, but there was nothing there
I couldn't hear you
Then I just gave it up
Everything stopped
You just... disappeared
And now I'm working here
I hear your voice all the time
Every woman has your voice
