Do you remember
We used to be friends
Strong friends, I thought
I remember
We were friends
What happened
To cool your heart
So icy now
Your heart ~ that is
Not like before
When we would discuss all
Now, just a forced smile
Sits on your face
Pushing our past away
I wonder how it feels
Your smile, I mean
It’s odd, don’t you think
How that smile escapes your mouth
When the crowd surrounds
But departs on the next train
When they’ve gone
You’ve been hurt
I know
So, have I
Do you think about it?
The hurt I mean
Those thoughts can linger
Linger too long sometimes
Have you got the time
Time to linger
I don’t think I have
Perhaps you don’t care
I think I do
Now I’ve told you
Now it’s in the open
Not sitting unopened
Like a bill on your desk
My heart is unopened yet ready
Ready for you.
