your cold words demanding that i go and in an instant
i don't see you, Jon
i see the other a man with your name his averted gaze
telling me i'm nothing in his eyes
gliding through the hall away from me moving on
i blink back to us
looking at the floor ashamed of my past but still i ask
you reply, impartial so out, i dash trying to look sucessful
like a businesswoman is how i want to appear in this moment intelligent, beautiful, confident
but i don't see you
i see her my babe my cherry night
my secret from last summer
polite and in a whisper telling me goodbye leaving me shattered
for she was my life
crashing into the circle i limply mumble hi but they do not notice
as i sigh
i still don't see you but i hear your voice your tone
wanting that i leave you alone
but still seeing her i reach for my phone instictively pushing her numbers
but she does not care
and now the tears come knowing she is not aware of us
our friendship
she thinks you're him well he sees me too but my eyes have changed again
i finally see you
do you even know you've hurt me? would you even care? i want to call out as you pass
but you act like i'm not there
what does all this mean? is it all in my head? politely i will leave
as you asked
but when i return we will pretend that nothing has changed
between us
as long as we're ok this will dissolve as a mere memory
this is all due to only one thing my fear, eternal
of losing you
like i lost them longshore and juju
please... not you, too...
Jon.
