There will never be another you,
softly crooned the singing star,
and there will never be another me,
muttered the poet alone at the bar.
-- Billy Collins

I left it
on when I
left the house
for the pleasure
of coming back
ten hours later
to the greatness

"After You've Gone"
on the piano
in the corner
of the bedroom
as I enter
in the dark
from New and Selected Poems by David Lehman
Beautiful poem. Billy Collins is the author of several books of poetry, and he is one of the best in this field. I am truly a fan.
