New work

And say goodbye

You were always honest

I cannot complain

Right from the start

The rules were the same

Wanting and wishing

For a little bit more

To feel closer

To warm my core

We started so well

It felt so good

I just don’t know

What I understood

The passion was so raw

Our appetites strong

Just the honeymoon period

Stringing us along

The text messages

Every single day

You were my friend

Keeping my demons at bay

I felt so close to you

That there was a spark

Me be foolish

Following my heart

The distance always comes knocking

The silence lasts a day

Before it was not possible

Just wasn’t our way

We became just partners

Good for an hour

The moment always great

The afterwards sour

I tell myself we need to talk

Even if I’ll be sad

Because lying to ourselves

Will just be as bad

You arrange for us to meet

Our first date in two months

I feel happy again

I didn’t know it was a front

I go to kiss you

You seem a little off

We sit down talking

In the shade to cool off

You wouldn’t let me take a photo

You’re so beautiful in your dress

I thought your actions were off

Something to get off your chest

It’s been a while

And you don’t see any sparks

I listen to you

Fidgeting with the grass

We both had similar thoughts

And this time it’s the end

I was losing you

And a friend

We sat in silence

As I rip up the grass

Listening to music

As people walk past

I decide to leave

As we walk to the car

I kiss you on the cheek

And say goodbye
