A Reunion

I can’t stand here Face to face And look you in the eyes As we both recount what took place Where your eyes looked Where your fingers traced Where your body laid Where your hands were placed Everyone else thinks we’re close The ones who know have departed The secret's been buried But this has only started Just like old times You reach out for my hand And whisper the words You used to command But I don’t love you I never did I was confused and scared Just a little kid There are so many questions I wish I knew the answers to What were you trying to prove? Who were you? But I can’t stand here Not now, not today As I recount what I thought Was innocent child’s play
