When I first met you
I noticed your smile
Was the sky after a storm
And looking into your eyes
Was waking up from a deep sleep
And forgetting all

And you were a question
I was trying to think of the right words
To ask

When you became familiar
You were the sofa
A piece of furniture eating at the table
The car driving itself to my parent’s house
Its driver barely a sentient being
I was contented

And now you are the smile
The question
And the furniture
