I see you, as you stare at our picture together, wondering how I’m doing, but resolved not to reach for your phone
You recall many moments that we shared As you glimpse at my eyes, staring past me You gave me your sweater But you have nothing of mine Save for the photos that you took I know It’s how it is Strange How we never knew that we were going to meet each other Until we did Like ships passing in the night We spent the night together That went by too fast We were in each other’s lives But for a moment That we stretched out Until we couldn’t anymore The rubber band holding us together Snapped It was stretched too long Or one-sided I can’t say So, we unanchored and departed Left the dock That was keeping us at bay Now unmoored We went on our merry ways And now you are there And I am here And I see you I feel you I know you feel me Like the lighthouse in the ocean I am the star that you see When you gaze at the photo Wondering what could have been As you keep guiding your ship To the land without me
