On the bathroom floor,
Memorise all the tiles
Like reading a book
I never want to end
Tiles you laid down, one by one,
Alongside your father
They still hold your fingers,
The stencil of your palms
If I trace them long enough, hard enough,
It almost feels like
I'm holding your hand
But it's 2:30 am,
And I'm drunk on the bathroom floor
And the tiles
Just feel like tiles
And you haven't called yet
And I have a dreadful feeling
In the pit of my stomach
That you never will
